The Great Cornwall Pasty Dash

A cheeky Cornish race full of seagulls, shortcuts, and pastry-based peril!

It’s a sunny day in Cornwall and you’ve got one simple mission: grab some delicious Cornish pasties and make it back to your favourite town before anyone else.

Easy, right? Not when hungry seagulls are circling overhead, rival players are blocking your path, and sneaky shortcuts tempt you off course.

Race through the towns and beaches, visit castles, landmarks, woods and gardens. Take part in the crazy, quirky traditions of Cornwall. Dodge flocks of feathered fiends, and keep your pasty safe at all costs.

Whether you're a local or just love Cornwall from afar, this fast-paced, family-friendly game is packed with mischief, charm, and a good dollop of seaside silliness.

Ready, set... DASH!

The Aim Of The Game

The aim of the game is to be the first player to collect 6 Cornish pasties (5 if 5 or more players are playing). You collect pasties by rolling the dice to win, or by stealing other people's pasties. This might sound simple, but you are thwarted at every turn by pasty stealing seagulls, pasty penalties and cheeky players!

Note: small pieces are used (the Cornish Pasties) and pubs are mentioned, so it might not be age appropriate for some children. We have put the age at 14+ for this reason alone. 

What Is In The Box?

  • a beautifully illustrated game board (A2 size and foldable)
  • 80 postcards with lots of fun facts and information on
  • 6 brightly coloured cars to move around the board with
  • 25 tiny (but not edible) Cornish Pasties.
  • game instructions
  • a dice

About The Game

The Great Cornwall Pasty Dash is a game for 2-6 players. You each choose a home town to start from (St Ives, Newquay, Bodmin, Fowey, Falmouth or Penzance).

Roll the dice and move around Cornwall, landing on different squares, winning and losing pasties as you go. Choose postcards that give lots of different information about Cornwall, and will take you to places you know, and others you might have not yet discovered!

What Is On The Board

THE HOME TOWNS

We have picked 6 of the best home towns in Cornwall:

  • Newquay
  • Bodmin
  • Fowey
  • Falmouth
  • Penzance
  • and St Ives (of course!)

BLACK SPACES

If you land on a space with a black outline, pick a postcard and read the information and instructions. This will send you all over the board.

YELLOW SPACES

Land on a yellow space and follow the instructions - safe from seagulls, roll to win a pasty, or miss a go!

RED SPACES

Seagull attack! Roll the dice again and win, lose, give or steal a pasty.

HOME TOWNS

If you land on someone elses home town and they have got pasties on it, you can steal one for yourself!

Handmade In St Ives!

Lots of elements of the game are handmade from our home in St Ives. Everything is drawn and written by us, and the pasties are made from our house.

Please do note that this is not a mass-produced game and is not made like a traditional board game.

The Cornish Pasties

We make the Cornish Pasties from polymer clay. We mould the clay into the pasty shapes and colour them individually. They are baked in the oven. Once they are cool we varnish them twice, so they take 3 days in total to fully dry and harden. It's quite a time-consuming process, made more manageable by a good cup of tea and some music playing in the background!

Please do note that these are handmade. The shape and colour of them is not even, they all come out looking slightly different!

Postage

We charge £3.50 postage on all UK orders. The game is pretty big, so it costs us this amount to post it out to you. 

We post all orders out within 3 working days of you ordering (usually much quicker). We send everything by 1st class Royal Mail from St Ives, which normally arrives within 1-2 working days. The parcel is quite large & won't fit through your letterbox if you are out. If you haven't received your game in good time, please contact us and I will get Royal Mail to check at your local depot.

If you are in St Ives and would prefer to pick it up from us, please enter the code STIVESLOCALPICKUP which will give you free postage. You can then arrange a time to come to our house to pick it up. Please email us (help@stivesbythesea.co.uk) to arrange a time.
