Great for Groups at Flambards

Cornwall's Flambards Theme Park is the perfect destination for groups in 2017. With a whole host of undercover attractions, seasonal entertainment and thrilling rides there are plenty of activities for coach parties, schools, clubs and committees to enjoy at great rates.

Undercover Attractions

Enjoy authentic history and heritage throughout the year with special rates for groups and coach parties. Visitors can head undercover and journey back in time to discover Britain in the Blitz, The War Gallery and Aviation Experience and an entire Victorian Village!

Step back in time to the 1800s and the reign of Queen Victoria into the unique Victorian Village.

With its evocative atmosphere of bustling streets and alleyways, hidden nooks and crannies, the village is an incredible all round sensory experience - authentic sights, smells and sounds thanks to the real cobblestones!

Groups can wander through the life-size village home to 50 businesses.  Gaze through shop windows, step inside the local pub, visit the greengrocer's, ironmonger's, butcher's, shoemaker's and even the apothecary – everything from a schoolroom and blacksmiths to the fire station is authentically recreated with thousands of genuine artefacts.

Discover the world of William White, a pharmacist who lived and worked in Somerset.  When he died in 1909, the shop was boarded up by his son who wasn't qualified to dispense drugs, the shop remained untouched for more than 80 years.  The walls are lined with medicine bottles, apothecary jars, quartz carboys, demijohns, pill dispensers and mortars and pestles.  This whole shop was carefully installed to Flambards as it was – lock, stock and cobweb!

The Britain in the Blitz exhibition is a life-size re-creation of daily life during the war.  Hear the air raid sirens and literally feel the floor shake as another bomb hits its target.  A visit will illustrate what life was like on the Home Front.  Peep in to a wartime kitchen, a classroom and an evocative railway platform scene showing children evacuating.  There are a series of fascinating letters to home sent from children evacuated to Cornwall in order to escape the threat of bombs.
