The Flambards Experience

The Flambards Experience is an amusement park in Helston that featured multiple rides and themed attractions spread across the grounds. The site contained various sections including ride areas, exhibition halls, and recreational zones designed to entertain visitors throughout the day.

The park originated in 1976 as an aerospace-focused attraction and developed over the following decades into a broader amusement destination. Operations ceased in 2024 after nearly 50 years serving families in Cornwall.

The Victorian Village displays period rooms filled with original household items and furnishings from the 1800s, showing how people actually lived back then. Walking through these rooms, you see everyday objects and layouts that make the past feel real and tangible.

The park was laid out for walking between different areas and rides, with pathways connecting the various sections. Visitors needed appropriate footwear and should prepare for changeable weather typical of the English southwest.

One standout feature was the Britain in the Blitz exhibition, which recreated a London street during World War II with authentic sound effects. This immersive historical display set it apart from standard amusement park attractions and gave visitors a different kind of experience.
