Mawnan Smith is a pretty village dating back centuries, with thatched cottages set on the Helford River in Cornwall, home to over 1450 people. The Blacksmith's Forge is still working and unveils treasures at the Craft Centre, Walkers enjoy the picturesque countryside, or for kaleidoscopic sub tropical plants from across the globe it has to be Glendurgan Garden, get lost in the Maze, or follow the steep winding path to the enchanting fishing village of Durgan and it's attractive beach, or how about Trebah Gardens where children find a world of magic with the tunnel of giant rhubarb that grows to sixteen feet, add streams, waterfalls, and a beach and Trebah weaves it's spell. The chance to arrive by boat on your own voyage of discovery at the National Maritime Museum should be taken, or maybe the whiskered faces at the National Seal Sanctuary will entice all animal lovers. Possibly the promise of a pair of Artillery Forts built by Henry V111 will tempt a visit to Pendennis Castle, or there is always Flambards Village Theme Park with it's magnificent Victorian Village, shops, and homes that shows what life was really like, if that sounds tame, hold tight on the white knuckle rides of Extreme Force, Hornet, and Thunderbolt.
