For those coming to Cornwall this summer -money-off vouchers

fatbelly

For those coming down to Cornwall this summer, you should be aware that the local papers often contain money-off vouchers for local attractions.

The West Briton and its sister papers Cornishman and Cornish Guardian come out on a Thursday and the vouchers are in the What’s On supplement.

The actual offers vary between the three papers as they have some local emphasis: West Briton – Camborne/Truro; Cornishman – Penzance; Guardian – Bodmin. All cost 85p. All the vouchers are one per person, unless stated otherwise

I can let you know what’s in the West Briton and this week it’s as follows:

joop123

any other hints or tips for days out? we are also going on the 25th, hoping the weather will be good so we can spend plenty of time on the beach, my children wont be happy if they dont see the great white.

Lol Joop you will need to go to the bahamas to see the Great White it was a hoax photo taken somewhere else.

Since getting married in Cornwall I have never had bad weather yet this time of year. You can usually skip the rain by just moving from one side to other, thats what we tend to do.
I am one for the more deserted beaches and as I invest in a National Trust card it pays for itself on parking for some of their beaches, gardens and other places.depends where you are in Cornwall we usuall are on the North but trying Falmouth side this year as we kept coming over that side last year.

Know it's a while off but we're down in Cornwall for Oct 1/2 term - any suggestions for finding money offs etc greatfully appreciated.
Am going to the Beast Burning for the first time - is it Good??

Tescos Club card deals for Flambards and cant stress how much you can save with a National Trust which you also get a full year to local NT admissions as well.

A few discounts here too.

We find a National trust card very useful, especially for car parks.

One of the nicest beaches is Godrevy on the north coast but it's only really accessible from a NT car park and i think it's £4 a time this year. Some local mse-ers just get membership for one child and that gets free car parking.

I think Quidco are giving £20 cashback if you go through them too.

Tesco deals work for Eden, Flambards, Goonhilly, Blue Reef Aquarium Newquay and the National Maritime Museum in Falmouth but I don't know of any restaurants down here in the scheme.
