Looking for something free to do over Easter 🐣👍

🐣🌸 FREE Easter Trail Around Newquay! 🌸🐣

Visit Newquay is delighted to be organising a FREE Easter Trail from Tuesday 7th April to Saturday 18th April, and we would love for local businesses to get involved!

This fun, family-friendly trail is designed to encourage residents and visitors to explore our wonderful town during the Easter holidays.

Here’s how it works:

📍 Families collect a trail sheet from Newquay Library and Information Service (TR7 1BD)
🐰 They follow the clues to participating shops around Newquay
🥚 Each business displays an Easter egg poster in their window
🔎 Children find the poster, note the letter inside, and complete their sheet
🎁 Completed sheets are returned to the library for a small Easter treat
(Please note: the library is closed on Sundays.)

Taking part is completely FREE and is a fantastic way to:

✨ Increase footfall into your shop
✨ Support a community-led family event
✨ Be part of a town-wide Easter celebration
✨ Showcase your business to new customers

If you would like to take part, we will pass your details on to the Visit Newquay Team , just email [email protected]

Let’s make this Easter egg-stra special for Newquay! 🐰💛

Proper job this 🖤🤍

Crantock Annual Pasty Competition is almost here and it’s the perfect way to celebrate St Piran’s Day — proper Cornish bakes, pints flowing and plenty of singing to follow 🥟🍺🎶

If you know someone handy with a crimp (or just partial to a pasty!), give this a share and help us spread the word.

Let’s make it a cracking Cornish night at The Cornishman!
