Gweek is a quiet riverside village in Cornwall and is home to 580 people, the National Seal Sanctuary is in the village and the heart stealing faces of the Seals, Otters and Sea Lions won’t fail to entertain, complete with Nursery Pools and hospital. Or if the rich Mining history of Cornwall tempts then a visit to Poldark Mine will definitely please, as this historic Tin Mine gives up it’s story unreservedly during the underground tour, or there is always the Mineral Tramways and Railway Discovery Centre that has a fascinating story to share. For lovers of the great outdoors the Lizard Discovery Centre explains through interactive exhibit’s the wonders of the countryside, or how about braving the cliff top walks where the raggedy cliffs shelter secret coves, or take a look around the impressive Lizard Lighthouse that stares out to sea with a blinking eye. For excitement and thrills The Royal Naval Air Station Culdrose with Fleet Air Arm Museum will deliver, time it right and watch the annual International Air Show. Or there is always Flambards Village Theme Park, where rides and exhibits jostle for attention with the recreated Victorian Village or how about Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station with guided tours explains 200 years of communication…
