The 100 Best Summer Holidays for 2010
(Only 2 entries for Cornwall)
January 2010
There are two ways to decide on your summer holiday this year. You can work through a million brochures and websites until you start feeling vaguely suicidal, then just book the first thing you saw; or you can make up a cup of coffee, put your feet up and let you chief travel writer, Stephen Bleach, guide you through the cream of the crop. No 13 E-i-e-i-o in Cornwall
Real working farms have their drawbacks — kids love the animals, but they’re not good at looking out for speeding tractors. Which is where a fake one such as Glynn Barton, in Cornwall comes in. It’s 13 acres of safe child-friendliness: there are cows, pigs, donkeys, sheep and chickens, with feeding sessions every morning and an indoor pool, a soft-play barn, toys, a climbing frame, a games room, the lot.

Swimming in Cornwall
March 2009
"But what really stood out
for me were the impressive facilities for little
ones. There's a fantastic soft-play barn, toddler
ride-on area, adventure playground and cosy playroom
complete with pool table and a video library for
the not-so-little. The cottages manage to be comfortable,
with Cath Kidson-style chic, and spacious, despite
all our kiddie clutter, yet they're brimming with
everyday necessities, from a built-in safety gate
to a child step to reach the washbasin."
