What to do in Cornwall?

Me and the Mrs are having our first real holiday together in a few weeks, we have rented a nice little thatched cottage just outside of Newquay. The only downside is that our two dogs are coming with us.

What hidden gems have the BCF peeps found in cornwall other than the usual touristy stuff? Im open to all suggestions as we both like lots of different stuff!

Cheers al,l Tom

I like the area around Goonhilly Downs :-

https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=cornwall&sll=52.267408,-0.916044&sspn=0.012107,0.026114&ie=UTF8&ll=50.042809,-5.068474&spn=0.050822,0.136986&z=14

Some nice cliff walks, and you can visit the Goonhilly Earth station, if that floats your boat.

All depends on what you like, there are:

- Mines
- Ace roads
- Beaches

If you like shoppoing there is some good places like,

- Penzance
- Marizion
- St Ives,

One thing that is a definate go see, is a resturant called 'The Meadery' in Newlyn. They do some pretty good food and some rather nasty Mead as Pernig found out last month. Good stuff though.

Where you staying would be rather helpful so we can tell you whats close.

Bodmin Moor is always good for a walk with the dogs, but don't go to Roughtor carpark after dark!!

Roughtor Carpark = Hiking spot by day ---> Dogging spot at night!!!

If you go down to the south coast, Mevagissey and Fowey / Polruan are two halfs of a great day.

If you're tempted by the Eden Project, here's some wise words: Don't be afraid to get the hell outta there. Plants can be interesting for only so long.

From a local, if your looking for great but conrasting towns, go to Falmouth, truro and newquay.

'Druth win most of their matches in their league anyway. I always struggle to decide whether to support Stourbridge (my home team and definitely the underdogs) or the Druth because they're so ruthless.

I miss boxing day matches Sad

There's no better way to celebrate Christmas than attempting to eat a pasty but spilling the contents on the floor from shivering whilst enjoying the blood bath on pitch.
