Sample Cornish culture at Padstow May Day

No holiday in Cornwall in May or June would be complete without taking in Padstow May Day. This Spring festival is something to behold. Thousands of Padstonians come from all over the world to line the streets and take part in the Obby Oss celebrations in a spectacular celebration that brings the town to life.

Enjoy a wildflower walk

Take a walk on the wild side as the brilliant tapestry of wild flowers spring into bloom along the South West Coast Path. From violets, primroses and bluebells, to pink thrift and white campion, sea holly, evening primrose and wild orchids, the colours of the wildflowers framed by the blue of the ocean is a memorable view. One of the most beautiful spring walks runs from just outside our Cornwall holiday park, from Holywell Bay to Kelsey Head. At 3.7 miles it crosses sand dunes, an Iron Age cliff castle and maritime heathland. You’ll pass the secluded beach of Polly Joke where the wildflowers are especially dazzling.

The Royal Cornwall Show

If you’ve never been to the Royal Cornwall Show then you really are missing out. This is the county’s showpiece event and anyone considering a June holiday in Cornwall really must put in their diary. This three-day celebration of all things Cornish is much more than an agricultural show. Here you can see livestock judging, food, flowers, stalls, trade stands and great entertainment!

Swim in the same waters as Poldark

We all remember the scene… the handsome Ross Poldark leaving little to the imagination as he swims in the shallows off a beautiful beach. Well, perhaps you’d like swim in those same crystal clear waters? Head to Porthgwarra in West Cornwall, which is a stunning setting and peaceful cove.

Forage in hedgerows

There’s rarely a time when Cornwall’s coast and countryside doesn’t offer a bounty of hidden ingredients but May is particularly good time to find hedgerows laden with tasty treats – you just have to know where to look.

Have the drive of your life

As the weather starts to warm up what better time to pull on your sun glasses and take a scenic drive. Head for the small village of Zennor, near St Ives, and treat yourself to the stretch of road that winds towards towards Sennen. Rivalling great drives from across the world, it enjoys magnificent sweeping views across the west Cornish coast and beyond so roll down the window, put your favourite tune on the stereo and keep the speedo down low, for you’ll want to take your time with this journey.
