I was looking for something to entertain my 4yr old grandson and he loves horses so I booked a tiny tots half hour for him. He absolutely loved it, he spent five minutes brushing the horse, then he got to sit on Sunny, his excited face said it all. I can’t believe that all it cost was £5, and the joy it brought was beyond any cost. Thank you so much for such a brilliant experience, we will definitely be back.

Looe Valley Vineyard

Artisan vineyard offering direct winery sales and tours. We are a small operation so please call in advance to check opening. Tours and tastings every Thursday - Saturday at 2pm Easter to end September other days by request. Takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Organised group tours available. Tours and tastings aim to teach you something and are much more than just a general guided tour. Hands on experience using tools of the trade to tend the vines and wine making process

Reviewed By 108maggiet

A really informative tour; Charles is very knowledgeable and and obviously enjoys sharing his love of wine making. This is a small vineyard so every part of the process is hands on and all 15 of us were able to take part in that as well as learning to 'taste' the wines. A lovely setting; the 2+ hours passed very pleasantly.

Wonderful scenery with breathtaking views across Bodmin Moor and beyond. A gentle walk to the Cheesewring passing Daniel Gumps old "house" gives you an idea of what it was like many years ago. Occasional climbers in the quarry below the Cheesewring make interesting watching. Good choice of cafes and a pub in Minnions

Golitha Falls

Reviewed By HelenH771 - Birmingham, United Kingdom

Went here to see the falls whilst on holiday with our 3 children (aged 11, 11 and 10). Whilst they are not always enthusiastic walkers, they had a great time walking through this forest and we have some lovely photos of them in amongst the bluebells that were prolific! We also followed the river path and had great fun crossing on stepping stones and logs at various points and were very lucky to see some cows coming down to the river for a drink! Another fab photo opp. The cafe was fab! We had some lovely hot chocolates and whilst we didn't eat, the food that was being served to other customers looked amazing and would certainly try it out the next time! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Toilets on site.

Looe Valley Line

The scenic Looe Valley Line links the bustling market town of Liskeard with the picturesque fishing port of Looe. The train journey is full of beautiful views out of the train window, as the wooded valley teaming with wildlife opens up to glorious estuary views as the river meets the sea. Looe itself is a much-loved seaside destination that’s full of character. It prides itself on its safe beaches for swimming and sunbathing, restaurants that specialise in fresh local ingredients, and a maze of narrow streets full of small independent shops to discover.
