Have found a Met Office pdf showing a map of Cornwall with average days of lying snow for the period 1971-2000. It look like at least 50% of the county has 3 days or less. Interestingly, one of the snowiest parts is the Lands End Peninsula with up to 10 days over the high ground to the west of Penzance.
