Sailing
Serious sailors will tell you that the sailing
and boating around the Helford River and the Fal
Estuary is second to none. If you want to learn
‘how to’ then we can personally recommend
the tuition at: Mylor
Sailing School.
If you have your own boat then you can launch
off several of the local beaches in and around
St Mawes. (Don’t forget to take a picnic
hamper! Full of home made goodies).
Surfing
.
Fistral
Beach near Newquay is where it all happens
if you are really keen, and it is only half an
hour's drive away.
See where else you can surf around Cornwall.
Windsurfing
Click
here for information on windsurfing in Cornwall,
and for some of you who like an adrenaline rush
don't miss out on the Extreme
Sports Acadamy in Watergate Bay !

RESTAURANTS & CULTURE
You will not go hungry on your holiday, that we can
guarantee! There is something to suit every taste, from
village pubs with excellent food, simple cafés
for a quick snack and top class restaurants such as
the famous Seafood Restaurant that Rick Stein has made
so famous on the TV. |
Village Pubs
Click
here for lots of local pubs, below are the ones
we would like to particularly recommend:
The
Roseland Inn, which is a few minutes away up the
road in Philleigh.
King’s
Head in Ruan, equally close.
But if you don’t even want to get into the car
you can walk up the hill into Tregony village and have
a jolly good meal at The
Kings' Arms and meet all our friendly locals in
the village.
Cafés
Cafe
Chandlers, in St Mawes just by the Ferry.
The perfect spot for a delicious light. Locally sourced
food perfect for filling a picnic hamper.
Rick
Stein's Cafe, obviously Rick needs no introduction,
so do visit Padstow and if the Seafood Restaurant is
not quite what you fancy try the Cafe for morning coffee
or lunch.
Cinema
We hope it won't be wet weather but just in case the
Roseland receives a shower or two and you want to hide
in the cinema the Truro
Plaza may be an ideal spot in which to shelter.
Theatre
If you drive to Penzance
don't leave with out visiting the famous Minack
Theatre. Quite apart from watching great theatre,
the view is simply breathtaking - and there are gardens
and cafes to enjoy - well worth a trip.

Restaurants
Some of the serious ones…
Tresanton
in St Mawes (pictured above). For terrific food
and stunning views over the harbour. Morning coffee
and afternoon tea recommended.
Fifteen
- Cornwall, situated on the Atlantic coast in Watergate
Bay. Great food and an inspiring project from
Jaime Oliver.
