At the entrance to the harbour is Pendennis Head, which is home to the English Heritage castle, the Ships and Castles leisure pool and one of, if not, the most famous Coastguard stations in the world.

Just along the coast from Falmouth are the beaches at Swanpool and Maenporth and the beautiful Helford River, with its lovely walks and two wonderful gardens - Trebah and Glendurgan - which lead right down to the waterside. We regularly walk this area and will gladly help you get the best from a visit.

Wider afield
Many of Cornwall's attractions are within an hour's drive from the Rosemary. From the world renowned Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan to some maybe lesser known but equally beautiful and interesting places. For example, the area between Lands End and St. Ives with its tin mines set in cliffs and the wild moorland behind or the huge expanse of sand and Godrevy Lighthouse on the other side of the Hayle Estuary from St Ives. Perhaps a total contrast, a ride on the famous King Harry Ferry to the Roseland Peninsula or set off in the other direction and visit Britain's most southerly point at The Lizard.

We carry a large selection of local information, including many detailed maps and walking books if you feel like exploring the wonderful countryside or Coast Path on foot or by car - we would be delighted to share our love of this beautiful part of the world with you.
