This is a place you have to visit during the day. really wholesome food out of a box on the cliff or take it down to the sand with a blanket. Highly recommended. 45 mins away but well worth it as lovely country drive down the Roseland. You could carry on to St Mawes then come back through Truro on the St mawes Ferry or go to The National trust Trelisick gardens just by the ferry or head into Falmouth.

We are 10 mins away from the Famous Eden Project which changes throughout the year with all different activities on offer from Ice skating, zip wiring, hanging loose or just admiring and taking in the amazing Biomes and surrounding gardens. We are an excellent base for the Eden project Music sessions. After a late night not far to get home. If you are into the Saturday morning park run you can do the run or walk and spend the whole day in Eden free after. A great way to be up and out in a morning and spend the day. You need to be there for 8.40am as it can be really busy with a great atmosphere in the peak holiday season there can be over 500 runners.

The great lusty glaze beach. Privately owned beach so just check it is open before visiting as sometimes they close the whole beach for a wedding! Wonderful meals there too. You need to be fit and able to go down many steps and to climb back up! Silent disco yoga is sometimes held on this beach during the summer. A real must if you are into that. check "Ocean flow yoga" website to see if your dates coincide with a silent disco session you won't be disappointed, truly magical.

Padstow is a lovely little harbour town with lots of different options for eating. small cafe's pop up's at the end of the camal cycle trail. There appears to be more and more Gin bars!!! Tarquins have a make your own Gin school here which you would need to book on. Padstow itself can get very busy. we would normally head over late afternoon or early morning for a potter. lots to do though if you wanted to spend all day and make use of the park and ride which operates in peak season.

Sightseeing

A wonderful trip to Fowey is always so lovely. A few cafe's and independent resteraunts to grab some lunch. Really quaint, not lots of shops but some individual shops and you can always get and ice cream, cream tea or Pasty!! Again can be very busy and parking quite far away so you would need to walk in but worth it. You could take the little car ferry across the estuary and head on over to Looe or take the passenger ferry from here to Mevagissey. lots of options to look into.
