Cornwall - know of any discounts/vouchers/savings

Hi does anyone have any discounts/vouchers or savings in general for Cornway. Ideally Newquay and surrounding areas. I've got a weeks holiday planned and am on a very tight budget for things to do places to see. Any points of direction would be grately appreciated.

    Hi

    We usually go down to Hayle, near St Ives, and have often found discount vouchers in the local papers or at reception where you are staying.

    It would also help to know what sort of attractions you are looking for i.e. children or adult?

    Hope that this helps

    Every week in Freetime the Cornish newspapers run different reader rewards.
    Please see this link for the promotions currently on offer.

    You'll need to buy The Cornishman, Cornish Guardian or West Briton.

    Great thanks for tip re. papers and leaflets in receptions. We're mainly looking for general places of interest and all kinds of fun. We can't wait to go.
  • Hi
    I hunted far and wide for discounts for Eden Project when I went to Cornwall recently - none to be had, BUT if you have any nectar points you can use these to buy your tickets which works out as a bit of a saving - they are 2000 points each. You can buy them online.
    Have a good time

    The West Briton has discounts this week for:

    Bluereef Aquarium Newquay
    Springfields Newquay
    Flambards Helston
    Shipwreck centre St Austell
    Goonhilly (beyond Helston)

    No discount vouchers for Eden but arriving on foot or by bike will save you £3

    You could have a look on https://www.daysout.co.uk.

    They can send you a large booklet with 2 for 1 offers for just about every part of the country. The vouchers are worth hundreds of pounds, there are a lot of offers in there. I have cut up my copy so cannot say what Cornwall ones are in there but have a look on the website.

    If you order a copy (takes about a week to arrive) try a discount code such as WO606 or DOV06 which may still work, to get the booklet for about £3 (instead of around £5, inc. p&p).

    You could also try Googling 'Gosummer' as there is a website called something like that which allows you to print off vouchers.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
