Default Anyone been or leaving in Cornwall?

Me and the wife (and 10 month baby) are thinking of visiting Cornwall in May and its our first time there.

Can anyone recommend where we should go. North Cornwall, South Cornwall, Central etc or where to stay.

We'd like to go where theres a few activities and where the baby can also feel included.

Recommendations on where to stay and what to do around there would be good.

Many thanks,

All of it, very scenic

For us with a 1 year old we'd be out walking / enjoying the outdoors most days.

Get yourself one of these:

I took the family 2 years ago and stayed just outside Bodmin in central Cornwall so we could easily access north and south coasts. Make sure you stay somewhere with an indoor swimming pool so if the weather is cr4p you have something to do free of charge with the little one.

Unfortunately my long lasting memory of that holiday is of how nice Truro hospital is and what a hit morphine is as I had an attack of kidney stones on the last night and got rushed to hospital by ambulance in agony

Perenporth is very nice. Jus outside Newquay 5 to 10 mins drive.
Newquay is great durin the day, fantastic park, zoo and beaches. On a night though it's getting a bit 18-30s in my opinion. Though I guess that won't matter with a baby.
There's tons of stuff to do all over Cornwall and leaflets on attractions are easy to come by.

Not on the May bank holiday at the end of the month its not. Unless you want to get stuck in lots of traffic. Lived in Newquay for years and it is very nice place to go and live, with the most attractions in one area of Cornwall and the best beaches IMO. Just avoid the whitsun bank holiday.

Very child friendly - even has a baby monitoring service.
