Indoor Attractions in Cornwall
Published: 23rd May 2017What to do on a rainy day in Cornwall? Head to Flambards of course. Here are our top 5 things to see and do when it gets wet!
Victorian Village
Step back in time to the cobbled streets and alleyways of Victorian Britain. Wander through the life-size village and discover over 50 different shops and lifestyle scenes authentically recreated with thousands of genuine artefacts.
We think you’ll especially like the ‘Chemist Time Capsule’ an old chemist shop that has been untouched for over 100 years…
Britain in the Blitz
For a unique experience like no other, head to Britain in the Blitz, just one of Flambards’ indoor attractions in Cornwall. You and your family will travel back in time to the 1940s as you experience life during the war. Hear the deafening sound of air raid sirens and literally feel the floor shake as another bomb hits the target! Explore the life-size street and experience life on the Home Front. Don’t forget to tag your experience on social using #Flambards.

Aviation Experience
Learn all about the remarkable highlights in aviation throughout the last century. From the first sustained power flight in 1902 to the first flight from Australia to England in 1992, there is something fun here for everyone. The little ones will especially enjoy stepping into the cockpit of an original Shackleton Bomber.

Don’t forget to step inside the iconic record- breaking Concorde prototype. Built partly in England and partly in France, it was the focus of great pride to both nations and the envy of the rest of the world. It is ‘peopled’ and equipped with original artefacts and is a must see when visiting Flambards.
Wedding Dresses
