Stones Throw - Activities

Fantastic sandy beaches, lush green countryside, huge craggy cliffs - and of course, plenty of the wet stuff. For those with a spirit of adventure and a love of the outdoors, Cornwall is one big, beautiful playground. There is so much to do. The following are some links that we think might be of help to you as you plan your holiday. We have lots of brochures in the flat as well.

Be a responsible visitor

You can help us by refusing packaging and bags you don't need, and using the recycling banks you'll find in most supermarket and district council car parks across Cornwall. And if you are offered a recycling system in your cottage, please use it. Help us to keep Cornwall a super holiday destination, free from litter and environmental damage.

Walking, cycling and riding are great ways to see the area without adding to traffic. Use public transport if you need to travel to your start point, but try exploring near to where you are staying. There are some fantastic places to see right on your doorstep...just ask!

You can see the stars at night in Cornwall! Help us reduce light pollution, energy use and CO2 emissions by switching off lights and all those standby buttons when you don't need them. Help us reduce water consumption by using just the water you need; and then sit back and enjoy that view.

it reminds us all to protect, respect and enjoy: look after plants and animals; take litter away; leave gates and property as you find them; keep dogs under close control; and consider other people and users when visiting the countryside. And enjoy!

Support local producers and services - and you'll see what Cornwall can offer, and benefit local communities. Visit farmers markets, farm shops, village stores, pubs and cafes. Our distinctive culture shines through the hundreds of community events that happen throughout the year - and the food and drink is simply fantastic.
