Been a while lovely to return. Loving the blues of the hydrangea. Free use of a tramper is a good addition for those who need assistance. Great day to chill on the beach before the hike back up. The new to us walled garden was worth a visit.

Random visit for us as we had planned other places, very glad we went. It poured with rain the whole time but this made it feel even more special. The plants and walks around are amazing and a kid park for the kids to enjoy. Would 100% recommend to all.

Wow what an amazing garden! It's got so many fascinating plants and all grown with so much vigor! The garden is in a valley so you walk down one side and walk back up the other. The paths are well maintained but there's a lot of walking up slopes. Lovely icecream shop by the beach.

We went with a coach party and parking wasn't a problem. The garden reminded me of the Gardens of Heligan but on a smaller scale and with less diversity of plants. The planting includes lots of bamboo, hydrangeas and tree ferns. The paths wind their way down to the beach where there is a cafe with outside tables. You can do a circular walk to return to the car park. There is a shop, cafe, toilets and small plant centre before the exit.

My wife and I loved this ravine garden... Excellent parking, very modern visitor centre with toilets, cafe and customer seating..helpful staff for regular and first time visitors...shop for gifts and plants. Very clear map of paths leading down to the beach with hard standing area, picnic benches and (on our visit) the option of tea coffee ice cream and snacks... wonderful views across the Helford estuary.

Absolutely beautiful gardens, we visited beginning of July 2025. Can choose between easy or more hilly walk around the grounds. We took our dog who also loved it. You can take your dog into the cafe which is great. Highly recommend a visit.

Great gardens to walk around, even the rainy weather didn't spoil it. Some steep pathways so bear that in mind if you have mobility issues. A great way to spend a few hours.

Tickets quite expensive but they do last for a whole year which makes up for the price :) an option for a cheap day ticket would be LOVELY. Best section of the area was seeing all the surf boards and learning about some of the locals and their cool, interesting history. The remote control boats were super unique with it only being controlled by using the sails and ‘wind’. Gets properly crowded on a rainy day.

Modern museum in a lovely marina setting. It was a bit pricey at £18.50 for an adult. There was a great surfing exhibition on. Lots of interesting facts associated with the famous exhibits there. It looked a popular place for mothers with young children as there is a play area. There is also an inside pond for playing with radio controlled boats. Also they have a decent cafe and shop. There is a car park nearby with shops and cafes.

They have a great exhibition of 100 years of surfing across Cornwall but also the world with big names in local sustainability such as James Otter of Otter Surfboards and David Forsyth from Driftwood Surfboards both great places to buy boards from! Really interesting and interactive exhibit with a 37ft surfboard weighing in at 181kg where it had 14 people able to ride it in the past and everything else in between! Definitely worth a visit just for this alone but the rest of the museum was amazing too!

Really enjoyed looking around at all the boats, surf boards and the history of the surf competitions. Unfortunatly the tide was out so we didnt see the fish in the lower levels. This didnt detract feom the experience. Also some amazing view.

What a great enjoyable place great for all the family lots of history easy to get to and fantastic veiws of the harbour

Great museum to visit , surfing exhibition great , plus all other exhibits , and view from tower

Lovely day out with the children, ages 5 -14 , all of them enjoyed it. Went during the pirate exhibition in the summer holidays, very thorough and interesting, they also had a pantomime on hourly for the children which was well thought out and engaging, children loved it. Went down to tide 2 in the tower and enjoyed looking out to underwater and seeing the tide in the harbour.

The parking signs for the disabled parking are ambiguous and incorrect,so it's not very clear. Friendly staff and great afternoon spent looking round Penndennis Castle and grounds. Whilst looking around the fun room within the main part of the castle we were approached by Don,one of the English Heritage staff who could see that our disabled daughter was enjoying reading the information in each room. He approached me and asked if we wanted an explanation and tour of the castle, which we agreed. He was fabulous taking time to explain what each room was for and pitching it at a level that our daughter could understand and relate to. He checked in after each room to ensure she had understood the information.He was interesting and very informative and especially kind and compassionate with our daughter as he took time and effort to ensure she took something from the experience. I asked if he had any experience with Additional needs as he was so good with our daughter, he hadn't I'm particular but had experience of working with young people. Don was definitely an asset to English Heritage and made our trip informative and memorable. The grounds and views were amazing and we felt very much connected to that part of history from his storytelling. The station the teashop were also good and cakes delicious.. All staff were friendly and great,I'd it hadn't of been for the confusion over the signage for disabled parking I would have given this a 5 star review. Definitely worth a visit.

Chose a sunny day and you'll be rewarded with stunning views over to St Mawes and Falmouth. The Military history spans the moments of crisis in British history; 16th century, the Nepoleonic wars and WW1/ 2. Superb info boards and exemplary English Hetitage staff dealing with an unexpected group of cruise ship visitors. Coffee in cafe to finish was just as good!

Absolutely loved our trip to Pendennis Castle. History with beautiful view's. A must for families & History buffs. Great cafe with friendly service and an amazing gift shop within something for everyone.

Interesting historical buildings, with plenty of information available. Easy to find, and onsite parking. It really only takes an hour to walk around the whole site, so it's a pleasant break from driving if you're passing through the area.

We went for the jousting tournament, which was brilliant, but there was a huge range of entertainment which was suitable for all ages and it was all included in the price. We also visited the castle and museum. There’s a lovely cafe, but the food and drink is expensive. There was plenty of car parking.

Lots of history around this castle and World War Two! It’s dog friendly and they are also allowed in the castle. We went in for free as we had an English Heritage membership - definitely worth doing.

Great place to It's truly a wonderful destination, offering a unique experience. The atmosphere is pleasant, making it easy to relax and enjoy your time. With its beautiful scenery, it provides a perfect backdrop for creating lasting memories. You will find yourself wanting to come back for another visit.

Lovely walk through an exotic woodland downhill to a tiny fishing village (some of which is now holiday cottages) and stony beach with beautiful views over river estuary. Energetic walk back uphill via the maze halfway which was great fun . There were some flowers but I went at wrong time of year for them but thoroughly enjoyed the gardens nevertheless. Refreshments and toilets at top and bottom of path.

Excellent! Beautiful gardens. The cafe is great too. The maze is a real highlight and so much fun! Harder than it looks! We walked down to the beach from the garden and it was really lovely! I did find the second hand bookshop a little more over priced than usual.Highly recommend!

Wow, what an a great garden, there's a lot to see. If you have limited mobility then be warned that most of the garden is on a slope so there's a lot of walking up and down hill. There's some fabulous and different plants here, all of which are well cared for. You can walk down to the beach which is a lovely place to chill. The maze is fantastic fun and challenging being on a slope. Don't miss the massive tulip tree as you walk in which is incredible! There's a lovely cafe selling tasty cakes and drinks, some of which are traditional to Cornwall.

Lovely relaxing atmosphere, dogs allowed on lead except the maze, orchard and schoolhouse which is fine. Great cafe but dogs are outside - website says inside on the left but it doesn’t have any walls so really it’s outside with a canopy. Pebbly beach but still relaxing with an ice-cream hut. Dogs are allowed here too but on a lead. My mum who is 80 managed this walk with a few stops at the benches dotted around the site.

A lovely garden to leisurely wonder around. The plants and trees are very well displayed, with info on some of them.The little village at the bottom of the garden is very quaint with the little beach where you can sit and have a ice cream before you start back up the hill. The grandchildren really enjoyed the maze.The staff were very helpful and friendly. We had a very good day out.

Fun activity for 3-4 hours with the kids. Maze, apple shed and the games nearby (connect4, big jenga blocks etc.) were really fun for the kids. Great walk down to the village near the beach and really tasty local ice cream from there. Finally some jacket potatoes back at the cafe near entrance to top the day.

We returned on Sunday, many years after our last visit. Still as beautiful as we remembered it. We had to take the easier route, as this time we had our grandson in his pushchair with us! Walked down to the village and beach, stopping for an ice-cream. Such a lovely spot. The flowers and trees in the gardens are stunning. We didn't attempt the maze this time, as previously, I remember it took us a long time to find our way out! Had some sandwiches and cake at the top café before our journey home - all delicious. Well worth a visit if you're in the Falmouth area.

Lovely little family friendly beach. Plea ty of parking in June on Saturday.

Very nice shingle beach (tiny stones, not large pebbles) with a slightly more sandy area next to the sea. Carpark opposite, a bit pricey but convenient. Beach side snack bar with plenty to eat and drink to the left (as you face the sea). Restaurant on the low cliff area to the right. Excellent for kayaking and other non power water activities.

Lovely chill beach with parking, cafe and restaurant on the rocks!

A very lovely beach, with a great cafe and good parking. Standard beach for sun soaking or swimming, and lots of rocky parts and coastal paths for the more adventurous and exploratory. Some parts are dog friendly and some are not, so best to check beforehand.

Beautiful beach, not too busy. Dogs restrictions during summer. Nowhere to eat, has toilets near car park. Lovely walk over to next beach, with summer dog restrictions. Unable to find place for food, with dogs. Came across mobile food bar with excellent food and good coffee.

Beautiful beach. Out of all Falmouth beaches, this is my favourite one to swim. It's a clear water beach and is perfect for a family day out. It has a nice cafe. Car park and toilets are across the road.

A lovely small beach that has a surfing school and a cafe by the beach. It’s probably visited by the locals more, but does have people come here from a distance too. It looks like a sandy beach, but it’s actually a pebble beach… so the water is Christal clear… apart from the shallowest point where all the tiny stones are washed onto the beach. Beautiful view at the sea front and also the local area. It also has a big paid car park near by where they also have mini golf there. I loved my visit!

Such a lovely place. So many cute donkeys and they get the best care possible. There is a cute little vegan cafe, too. Clear recommendation.

My daughter had a donkey adopted to her for her Birthday (Bunny), so we wanted to come and visit her. My kids absolutely loved seeing all the donkeys. You can see they are well looked after and loved. Their stables and barns were in a great condition and had lots of space. We went into the Vegan cafe which was lovely and the staff really nice. We purchased donkey merch in the gift shop. My daughter loves her Bunny cup. Overall lovely visit and could donate when there. We will be back and I am sure my son will have a donkey to his name by Christmas haha (Bertie)

Fantastic place with amazing knowledgeable staff. So many beautiful donkeys and a fully vegan cafe which was the icing on the cake! Reasonably priced gift shop and of course had to adopt one of the donkeys. Highly recommended

We had such an amazing time here. The donkeys were all so loved and cared for, and the place was so clean and well thought out. Lovely experience, and we will definitely be back

Myself and a friend visited the sanctuary today and we couldn't have had a better experience. All of the staff and volunteers were amazing with a special shout-out going to volunteer Bob who was greeting everybody on the gate with a massive smile and great chat. Entry to the site is free, but donations are appreciated - even if it comes through buying something at the gift shop. Another shout-out to one of the other members of staff, Rachel, who we found frequently gently encouraging the donkeys to get closer to the public for cuddles and love. She was also taking people's phones to go get close-up photos for them. The ladies in the gift shop were super friendly, and the café staff were excellent when dealing with an allergy in our party. All of the animals were obviously very well cared for. As people who grew up with horses and donkeys, we could tell they all get the best love, and staff are obviously dedicated to their wellbeing. The sanctuary has lots of parking including accessible spaces and drop off zones. Everyone was happy to be there, including the many families with young children. We didn't come with a dog, but saw many wandering around, greeting the donkeys themselves. We will almost certainly be back (probably in a few days!). Thank you to everyone who volunteers and works there!!

Beautiful restful place for rescued Donkeys, staff are very friendly, always happy to answer questions about the donkeys. Donkeys are very happy and very friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Fantastic place to visit near Falmouth. So many rescue donkeys here in barns or out enjoying the sun in the paddocks. They are off all ages from ten days old to 60+ years of ago. We called in to Lidl on the way and picked up three bags of carrots to donate. 😀

The beach was nice. I took a pleasant walk along the coast. It was windy, so I didn’t go into the waves. I just enjoyed it from the shore.

Lovely city beach. Seems to be a reasonably flat sea bay, so safe for kids to splash in the water. Sandy white beach (coarse) and clear water. Blue flag beach (clean). Lovely view of pendennis castle, pendennis point and st anthony lighthouse. A beach cafe just over the sand, a takeaway and car park right next to it. Lifeguards on site.

Nice place to be with friends, family and good amenities in and around with the connecting coast path close by and a pay and display car park only minutes away from both beach and path. Extremely busy in summer time but all year round good place to come.

Nice little beach, and a nice walk from Falmouth,watch out for seagulls,they will take food from you just when you are putting it in your mouth.

Gylly Beach has clear, fresh water and soft, clean sand. The atmosphere is welcoming, with friendly people all around. It’s a beautiful spot to relax and enjoy the seaside ❤️

This beach was a nice place for me to relax after a lengthy coastal walk. It wasn't too crowded and had plenty of benches available to sit on. Also, it was located just a 5 minute walk away from Falmouth Town Station where I was able to get the train back to Truro from.

Public toilets, co op right outside beach entrance, sauna £8 for 30 mins, surfing schools, Swanpool beach is a walk around to the right side

A small but lovely art gallery with a charming little shop (prices are on the higher side, but that’s expected). What really stood out was how engaging the installations were — not just for adults, but for kids too. It’s wonderful that children are encouraged to interact with the exhibits, which makes the whole experience more fun and memorable. The current exhibition on technology and art was especially interesting and thought-provoking. Also, very convenient that there’s a toilet nearby — makes a big difference when visiting with kids. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!

Visited the exhibit of ‘The Legend of King Arthur: A Pre-Raphaelite Love Story’. I had always wanted to see The Lady of Shalott in person. I visited Tate a while ago but it was being exhibited elsewhere at the time. Now it’s exhibiting in Falmouth and it was just great to see. Such a great exhibit overall. Displayed well and with a shop.

Small gallery with limited display space. Enjoyed what was on display but some of its better works weren't exhibited, which was a shame.

A small FREE gallery but I found the exhibition on automata fascinating. I admire the exhibitors (most of whom are local to Falmouth) for allowing some of the exhibits to be played with (most people are careful but I was concerned about the child who was seeing how fast he could turn the handle - why wasn't the parent explaining that for everyone to enjoy these exhibits, we most all be respectful and careful not to break them). Beautiful, detailed work - often very complex scenes - as well as larger models/automata. Activities for children (everyone, probably) to try. Show your support for this small free gallery as we were told that the council needs to see that it is worth keeping it open by the number of visitors it attracts.

Free gallery above the town library. Real good exhibition of local interest artists and some good multi media (video art). It is small....free but very well curated and a pleasure and surprise to visit. Well done.

It's ok. Smaller than I thought it would be and a whole section was filled with rocks which don't interest me much. The central bit about Falmouth history was good and upstairs was a bit forgettable. Overall good but too expensive.

Free art gallery with a gift shop. Had an exhibition of Arthurian legend paintings and exhibits on display until end of Sept 2023. Including tapestries.

We had the most amazing visit at Falmouth lifeboat station - made our grandson's day thanks to Yvonne's ability to engage our family's 3 generations that visited today - our 5 year-old got to be fully involved wearing the gear and helmet, learning how to raise the alarm and even better go on the boat and be navigator for the day. The rest of us were equally enthralled to learn about the volunteers and amazing work of the service that risks their lives for us. This is certainly not the first lifeboat station we have visited but was by far and away the best.Thank you Yvonne for making it better than Pendenis castle with jousting. (Which was great too.)

This is a must-go in Falmouth. We booked this tour earlier through emailing their station and got a reply promptly. The tour was around 45 minutes and Yvonne showed us around and talked about RNLI’s history and missions. We even got the chance to go on board the lifeboats and took some nice photos. We learnt much more about the organisation and its operation. The sacrifices of these lifesaving heroes are truly admirable. RNLI wouldn’t be making such a big impact without volunteers like Yvonne. Thank you once again for this amazing experience!

Interesting, engaging and funny tour today learning about the RNLI. Kids loved sitting inside the boat. These teams and the people within do amazing work - thank you!

The Penryn Camera Club braved a stormy sky (it didn’t rain) for a visit to the Falmouth RNLI Station. This included a trip around the station and even on the larger lifeboat. A real treat, accompanied by a knowledgeable and friendly guide. A fabulous visit to this public-funded facility, loads of info and facts, and some great pictures. Strange fact; They do not even get VAT relief on their fuel!! so they are always looking for donations to help save those in need. Highly recommend visiting and supporting this RNLI station.

You can visit an operating lifeboat station and the boat itself. There is a little tour with general background information and insights in the daily work. We, as a family of 3, realy enjoyed the short tour (with Derek) and recommend a visit.

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit - a guided tour by volunteer Chris, during our stay in a nearby apartment. Very knowledgeable & committed to the aims and purposes of the Institution, as am I, for many decades. Visits need to be prearranged but may be disrupted at short notice by operational requirements, eg, should the crew have "a shout" (launch). After a detailed safety briefing, we were invited onto their Severn Class AW Lifeboat, with a great explanation of its operational areas, capabilities & purposes, safety features, et al including onto the bridge & its admittedly limited on board crew quarters. The engine room is "out of bounds" for safety grounds. Followed by a visit to the station itself, including the crew rooms and their inshore RIB, that is launched & recovered via an adjoining slipway. As an aside - and also reported widely on various MSM & other news sources - their Severn Class vessel is being replaced, after a quarter of a century of service, in coming weeks by the RNLI's most modern boat, the Shannon Class. Well worth a visit to better understand the commitment of those living &/or working in our coastal communities, to the saving of lives and preservation of safety at sea.

Great tour.Very interesting.Highly recommended.

Lovely grounds and a good walk. You can also walk along the beach there too.

Visited the gardens in July, the flowers and plants were lovely to see. The gardens were very well maintained.

Lovely colourful gardens with car park and beach nearby

One of the most beautiful town in UK 💙

Beautifully kept gardens with interesting array of plants. Loved the Monterey pines.

Although small there's a wonderful range of plants. Next to it is a lovely beach, cafe and toilets. The garden is a hundred years old and nearby is a separate dog friendly area and a lovely cove and another beach with nature reserve.

It's called Queen Mary Gardens but the truth is I went to the beach not the Gardens though they looked nice and peaceful. Parking is just over the road and from memory I paid £5.80 for 4 hours, I think it was £8.50 for the day. The beach on the other hand was really nice with plenty of room for all. There was a public toilet and showers. And there were a few food and drink outlets. And the beach had life guards on duty. Oh and the beach was very clean.

Had a fantastic time, such lovely gardens, and very family-friendly. The staff were absolutely wonderful and engaging.

Bluebells are stunning when in bloom. The large gardens have formal and wild landscapes with a lovely lake and orchards, play area for children under adult supervision. Dog friendly. Weekend events throughout the year, antiques, art, vintage cars, concerts and theatre.

Absolutely stunning. Wonderful visit and can't wait to come back.

Beautiful privately owned gardens lovely at any time of the year.But it is at its most beautiful now and probably for the next week, Enys has the most beautiful bluebell meadows yes l said meadows.There are also more formal gardens and orchard. There is a small cafe offering cakes and light snacks. It’s costs £14-00 per adult, well worth it in my opinion.

We visited today (May 6th) to see the bluebells and walk around the grounds. This was our first time at Enys Gardens and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The sun shone, the carpets of bluebells were stunning and the walk around the grounds was peaceful, tranquil and just perfect. Bluebells everywhere!

We were in Port Isaac when I found out about Enys Gardens. Made the trip to see the fields of bluebells and garlic. Even though it was raining, we were not disappointed. Absolutely beautiful carpets of flowers. The smell of the wild garlic was amazing, even through the rain. We'd love to go back and see the bluebells before they were knocked down from heavy rains.

Being an avid gardener I love visiting local gardens and living in Cornwall I'm lucky enough to have so many to choose from. Yesterday's garden was Enys in Penryn Cornwall. If you head towards falmouth going down through Penryn you'll see a small sign for Enys so eyes open. Plenty of parking once you get there and the prices were good too, Adults only £8 and seniors £6 kids £2 and family is only £18. Great value for money. Oh and it's Dog Friendly. Brilliant. The gardens are lovely, it's got a rusty Cornish feel to it, plants of beautiful trees to look at, beautiful tall oaks, monkey puzzles to redwoods even a young 40ft redwood with a wisteria climbing through it. Pictures to follow. Lots of rhododendrons and dicksonias to walk though. Very small coffee shop with plenty of seating but I recommend taking your own lunches. Lots of places to sit and have a sammidge. They do do a lovely coffee cake though. It's a very relaxed atmosphere and perfectly located with a history that dates back to the 1300s. Amazing.

Almost 120 years old, needs some renovation but still, it's a great pier 👍😎

Be careful that there are 2 docks in falmouth!!

A lovely sunny day & a good walk out on the pier. Sat on one of many benches & had a bite to eat & a coffee from the spar shop close by. Toilets nearby. Also boat trip cabins always wanting you to have a boat trip. Great views over the river, town & docks.

Typical entrance way nothing outstanding

Just a beautiful day in the sun

Nice relaxed meeting point with local cafes and restaurants

The Piermaster is always welcoming and helpful. Water, toilets and bins.

Attractive garden which includes both plants and a vegetable garden ( although the latter was not overly planted) Educational/training courses are available as well as the opportunity to have private daytime and evening functions. Nice cafe on site offering good range if foid and drinks.

I recently visited this hidden gem Potager Garden Cafe in Falmouth and I can’t get over how wonderful it was. The food was great, the staff were all so lovely and friendly, and the setting itself is simply stunning. Its the perfect spot for a relaxing brunch surrounded by nature and greens inside and outside. I’ll definitely be going back and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting falmouth.

This place never disappoints! Every visit brings something new and exciting to the menu. The staff are always smiling and efficient—a true sign that they enjoy working there as much as we love coming back.

Quirky location in a former nursery/garden centre , the cafe serves delicious veggie snacks and cakes. Inventive recipes mean you don't miss meat and the portions are generous. Delightful staff and verdant surroundings plus relaxed vibe guarantee a delightful lunch or even just coffee and cake experience.

A warm welcome, great service and truly delicious vegetarian food in a beautiful relaxed setting. The greenhouse is lovely, with regal snoozy cat - always a win in my book. Vegan options available, like the poke bowl with crispy glazed tofu that I had. The cakes are also well worth saving a little room for. And the coffee was top notch too. Practical mention for the well kept, spacious car park too. I hope to visit again, as it’s always pleasing to find a proper hidden gem like this. Where we can bring our little dog too. Thank you!

I’ve been here so many times and the food never disappoints! The banana bread and compote is my favourite. Last week I got the full English veggie breakfast and it was amazing. Staff are so attentive and kind. Great place to bring kids too. Lots of space inside the cafe or in the greenhouse. Nice hidden gem.

Potager is like an oasis, whether on a summer’s day or on a miserable damp winter’s day with the log burner glowing red. We had a wonderful lunch today, super healthy ,delicious mains plus shared sides and some of us had cake too! There are gluten free and vegan options but it’s all delicious. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It was a wonderful outing.

I had to go in to get some information on boat trips and what to do for me and my kids. When entering the shop there was a member of staff that was not dressed appropriately as everything was on show ( not a pretty site) and my kids wouldn't stop looking. she might as well just had her pants on With this I Found the staff members every rude no hello can I help just chatting amongst theirselves not having a clue what's going on in the shop. With this IV had to take my kids out and change are plans a little. Not happy kids.

Sam was incredibly helpful when I was on holiday in Falmouth. My phone broke and she went out of her way to get into my gmail account (2 step verification nightmare!) and help me print off my return travel tickets which were on my phone. As well as being so kind she is also very knowledgable. Thank you Sam for the support

I would like to express my thanks to Steve for his help and support every time I have been into the Fal River Tourist Information. Steve is an asset to your organisation. He is very knowledgeable on the local area. I can always rely on Steve to give me the very best advice and suggestions where to go. Always gives fab recommendations of places to go. Not only is Steve knowledgeable, but he is a bright, bubbly personality and always a pleasure to see when I visit.

They lady at the visitor centre went above and beyond to advice us and made such our ferry trip was very enjoyable

Just arrived in Falmouth and pop d in for a little guidance and a lady called Sam helped us she was lovely went through loads of options of where to go and how to do it thanks

Good leaflets inside, however the staff worked for a boating company so knowledge of other services limited.

Doesn't close at 18:00 :( Wasted trip in...

Lovely little beach! Dog friendly all year round! Car parks cheap at £2 all day and all goes towards the upkeep. Nice 10 min down hill walk to the beach from the carpark. When we visited a part of the path down to the beach had collapsed so be careful but looked like it was in hand and being repaired.

Fabulous dog friendly beach. It was very busy the day we were there but still lovely. No facilities so cross your legs! It’s a steep walk down to the beach from the car park so probably it great for people with mobility issues. Car park is £2 for a few hours or £4 for the day. Bargain!

Sheltered hamlet on the north shore of Helford River. Calm, clear water for bathing.

The beach is shingle or gravel as are all the beaches in this area of the estuary. Ideal if you own a dog but not if you want some peace and quiet. The water is quite shallow if you are a none swimmer. There was a primary school on the beach! Now is a private residence.

Unspoilt Cornish cove, popular with walkers. Very limited facilities, which is part of the appeal, although some reviewers may drop stars for that? Basically a toilet and small ice cream outlet! Cars are not permitted in the village - you need to park in a National Trust car park at the top of the winding lane. Could be tricky for wheelchair users - the only way to the beach is a rough path, or on the lane itself. Parts are steep. Lovely views as you descend and a sandy/pebbly beach to greet you. Sea perfect for a dip if you don't feel the cold! Dogs welcome.

A nice beach 🌊🏖 just ourside of Glendurgan garden🌳🌴. The children liked playing in the rock pools 🦀, we had a relaxing afternoon. Nice display in the National Trust shop/information center very interesting to read about the history. We enjoyed the ice creams 🍦 from there (National Trust prices but they were tasty). Would recommend a visit especially if you are already visiting Glendurgan garden.

Not a bad place but nothing to excite. Not much sand but lots of rock pools for kids to get in and out of. Hunting under rocks for crabs was fun. However, little place for ice cream is a traditional cornish RIP off. Tiny tiny icecream for £2 and near impossible to find a bin to put the waste in. Car park is at the top of the hill so a bit of a walk down and up, not that that is bad, but after a time on the beach with tired kids, it's not fun trunching back up the hill. Views however are lovely.
