We like to live up to our name at Helpful Holidays and that’s why each year we put together a glossy brochure for our customers to help make their holidays as enjoyable as possible. As always, this year’s issue contains in depth information and tips on how you can make the most of your holiday whilst staying at one of our cottages.
Our “What shall we do today?” 2015 guide includes
a collection of impartial recommendations about some of the best things to do whilst
visiting the West Country. This helps
you tailor your holiday to your own tastes and needs, such as those travelling
with young children, adventurous travellers who wish to pack their
holiday itinerary full of activities or older couples seeking more relaxed
options for their leisure time.
Our
ever-popular top 10 lists are updated annually to ensure that we inform visitors
of the most up-to-date and exciting
opportunities. Using our local knowledge, we’ve compiled lists of the top 10 walks, beaches,
places to eat, gardens and houses, attractions for children and West Country
Wonders. The latter includes such delights as the appropriately named Eden, as
well as picture-perfect Cornish villages and locations made famous through our literary
and cultural heritage.
Farmers
Markets are some of the most authentic and enjoyable days out in the West
Country and we’ve compiled a list with dates and times when the more
interesting ones are held, including those in Falmouth, Penzance and
Dorchester. These markets provide a fun-filled way to mingle with local people and
get a taster of the best local produce fresh from the farm.
Sun
and beach worshippers will love our list of award-winning beaches, which
include details on those that are marked with the prestigious Blue Flag and
those with official RNLI lifeguards. Foodies can scan our list of award-winning
as well as value-for-money pubs and restaurants, while holidaymakers who love a
good hike can choose from the range of short and long routes. These are all
divided up into regions for ease of reference.
Our
month-by-month special events calendar will ensure that you don’t miss out on
any of the West Country festivities, which include jazz festivals, craft fairs,
regattas, surfing championships and oyster festivals. The region is also home
to some of the most beautiful and enjoyable Christmas festivities in the UK.
And that’s
not all. In the true spirit of keeping your holidays hassle-free, we’ve secured
some fabulous discounts for you. Our brochure contains vouchers with discounts
on admission prices for many attractions, as well as savings on activities such
as watersports, bicycle and surfboard hire and even offers of free tea and cake!
