Torquay/Paignton just down the road which has a decent zoo and beach and Cornwall obviously has some of the best beaches in the country, just get to the coast and there will be a decent one.
The Eden Project is worth a shout and there are a few theme type places, I took the kids to Flambards recently and they loved it.
I personally think Lands End is sh*t, too many Emmets and not much to see.
Looe is good, retained it's charm and easy to spend a family day there, Padstow also is great for beaches.
So quite a bit really the only downfall is traffic and tourists, plus the seagulls are f*cking kamikaze.
Also decent B&B's around for the smaller towns/villages.
Kernow will probably know some hidden treasures?
