Carnon Downs, a charming Cornish settlement, has a store, a post office, and a pub. The attractive town of Falmouth and the nearby village of Portreath are also easily accessible by vehicle, as are the north and south coasts with their sandy beaches, perfect for those who want to surf or hike the coastpath. Classic automobile enthusiasts will love a trip to Perranwell Station where they may rent a Morgan car for the day. In the Bissoe Valley, which is also close by, is Bissoe Bike Hire, where you can rent a bike and take in the views of the abandoned mines and lovely forested valleys as you pedal from Portreath to Devoran or simply relax with a snack in the café. Truro, the sole city in Cornwall, is home to a spectacular cathedral, the Royal Cornwall Museum, the Hall for Cornwall, a theatre and performance venue, and a variety of stores, bars, and eateries. The third-largest natural harbour in the world is located at Falmouth. The National Maritime Museum, secure beaches, boat rides up the Carrick Roads, and Pendennis Castle, which was built by Henry VIII and is the town's most well-liked attraction, may all be found here. There are several nearby gardens to visit besides The Lost Gardens of Heligan, including Trelissick, Trebah, and Glendurgan. You can reach the stunning Roseland Peninsular, which is well worth a visit, by taking a quick trip across the King Harry Ferry. Carnon Downs is an ideal starting point for visiting this region of Cornwall because the Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, and Land's End are close by.
