Flambards Village Theme Park (Cornwall) Reviews

Newest Review: ... of a man in his home, whilst here you can hear bombs going off which again helps hit home. Coming through here you can see inside shops of the time, most of them have signs concerning rations or saying they have no more stock of particular items such as sweets. I really enjoyed seeing the products of the time as this is an era I am personally really interested in. A lot of effort has obviously gone into this exibition and I really enjoyed seeing it. *The Victorian Village* This was certainly my favourite part of the whole day and it was all truly magical. A number of things bought back memories from a child and I really enjoyed mysel... more

My husband and visited with my 2 children 5 and 4 years of age. Blitz area terrified the little girl because it was so dark and loud (so dark I believe its dangerous as you can't see where you are going). Only rides my boy liked where ones where you had to put in a £1! This after using £60 worth of Tesco club vouchers and making the rest up in cash, to get in! So I was expecting something half decent for that amount of entrance fee.Half of the refreshment areas were closed. Toilets old and in poor condition. Signage around the park very bad.Park felt like ghost town as you walked around because it was nearly empty, and this was a Friday during the main school holidays.Left after 1.5 hrs (and that was stretching it) really disappointed. Would definitely NOT recommend the place.

Me and my partner visited Flambards this morning because we are on holiday close by. I visited Flambards as a kid and from what I can remember I had a fab time so I was keen to go again. We were also both sucked in by the Britain in the Blitz feature, amongst other things. *Location and Directions* Flambards is located just outside the Cornish town of Helston. It is about 15 miles from Newquay and 10 miles from Hayle. To get there, you simply head to Helston and then follow the brown signs. There were plenty of brown signs and the park was easy to find. We used our sat nav but the postcode given on the Flambards website (TR13 0QA) actually took us ... Read the complete review

Flambards Theme Park just a short distance from Helston in Cornwall is defintely an experience, the only trouble is I'm not sure which one! It's a fair drive (nearly 2 hours from Plymouth) and is not far from 2 other fantastic sights - The Lizard and Lands End. There are a few rides, a carousel, a log flume (Canyon River), a modest sized roller coaster (Hornet), tug boat, a spinning wheel (thunderbolt) and a ride known as Extreme Force which basically turns you upside down slowly in one direction and then does the same the other. It's a pity they changed the previous ride which was very similar, because I managed to get the guy running it to leave ... Read the complete review

We have just returned from a fabulous holiday in cornwall. We decided to go back to flambards, we'd been a few years ago when our daughter was very small and enjoyed it. We now have two daughters aged 9 and 6 and wow what a fabulous day they had. They have not stopped going on about it - and that's the truth! We arrived at the opening time the car park wasn't full (mind you it was out of season). We actually used £50.00 worth of our tesco club card vouchers. A family of four is £49.50 (you don't get change) so we walked in having not spent a penny which felt good to start! Luckily the weather was lovely for us so we were able to go the outdoor rides. I must admit ... Read the complete review

we visit flambards every year when we go to cornwall, our holiday would not be the same without our day out here, & yes it is a full day out, we often return again while we are down there, as you can return again for £3 per person if you get your tickets stamped on the exit. flambards is a family theme park which is not really for your teenagers that just love the thrill seeking fast rides, it does have a couple of them but they are still suitable for younger riders if with an adults, they are not anything like shock wave etc. there are loads of places to get food there where you are able to sit inside or out. all the rides adults are able to go on ...
