Autumn in West Cornwall has a little magic (and mischief) about it. 🎃
Six spooky-season adventures within easy reach of St Ives and Carbis Bay:
🎃 Pick your own pumpkin at Trevaskis Farm. Wander the fields at Connor Downs, choose your perfect (or wonkiest) pumpkin, then warm up with cake at the Farmhouse Kitchen.
🧜♀️ Chase the Mermaid of Zennor. Walk the wild, windswept coast path and call into the little church to find the legend for yourself. Moody skies make it even better.
🍂 Crunch through Tehidy Woods. Fallen leaves, mossy trees and misty paths. The perfect setting for a ghost story.
🎭 Catch Rogue Theatre’s Halloween play in the woods. Follow the winding paths into the trees for an immersive, spine-tingling performance by one of Cornwall’s most magical theatre companies.
🦜 Claws, Jaws and Roars at Paradise Park. A great half-term day out for little witches and wizards.
🏰 Explore Godolphin. Tudor stonework, ancient gardens and the kind of atmosphere that suits a late October afternoon.
Then home to your cottage for hot chocolate, something bubbling on the hob and a very good excuse to stay in.
