Nearby pub
A traditional historic pub in the centre of town which offers local ales and ciders along with home cooked food. There's a large beer garden for summer months and a warming open fire to warm yourself in winter.
Nearby beach
This small rocky and sandy beach is a family favourite during the summer. Access is along the path from the village where the passenger ferry can be found. The views are lovely over the bay to Falmouth and dogs are welcome year round.

Flushing Beach
Love this beach - so sheltered and nice water to swim in.
Nearby walk
Running alongside the waters of the Carrick Roads, this short walk from the village of Flushing to the yacht harbour and waterside church at Mylor Churchtown has wonderful views. It's about 2km from Trefusis Point to Churchtown.
March 2022
Attractive coastal walk
The track from Trefusis Lodge runs through the estate and joins the coastal path leading from Flushing to Mylor. Glorious views over Falmouth to Pendennis and St. Mawes Castles. Path is very muddy after rain!
October 2019
A lovely walk
You get a bit of everything on this walk, sea, woods and fields. Only a couple of stiles and my collies managed them well. Not too much mud but wear walking boots as the cows use the fields sometimes and leave their foot print. We had a delicious fish lunch at Castaways East before heading back up the hill through the churchyard to complete the circuit. I can’t wait to go back.
September 2016
Lovely Walk (4 miles or 4.6 miles...)
This is a great way to spend the day; take 'Miranda' the little ferry, from the Prince of Wales Pier, to Flushing. The best route is around Trefusis Head, turn right along the road when you get off the ferry, this is 2.3 miles but mostly flat. There are two choices for eating in Mylor; we prefer the Cafe to the Wine Bar for lunch. Return by the same route or take the hilly option over the top of the hill 1.6 miles. Take the time to look around St Mylor Church and see the HMS Ganges Memorial. The flat route takes about 45 minutes but anticipate longer as you will stop frequently to look around and take photos. We have seen seals on the coastal route. The 'up and over' route although shorter is quite steep and if you have dodgy knees the last bit down into Flushing is a killer! The Seven Stars provides a warm welcome at Flushing if you have to wait for the return ferry or the Waterside Cafe, though opening hours seem a bit random. There is a small general store and there is sometimes coffee available at the methodist hall apparently. NB: If there has been prolonged heavy rain then leave this for another day as the fields can get very boggy but it drains pretty quickly and the paths are being improved all the time. I will award a 5th star when there are a few bench seats along the way!
Nearby town
Falmouth's smaller neighbour doesn't get much of a look in, being in the shadows of the fourth best place to live in England. But it has plenty to offer for those put off by the bright lights of a busy town. It is situated at the head of the Penryn river and surrounded by the pretty little villages of the Helford. Easy access to other areas of the far west is facilitated by the proximity of the A39 yet you've the sea views and harbour delights of a coastal town to enjoy. And did you know, Penryn is the oldest market town in Cornwall? So there's plenty of historical architecture and landscapes to explore.
Also nearby
A beach cafe in the most rustic sense - a beachside shed with some outdoor seating. It is a National Trust-owned hut, but run by a local couple who provide 'Feast Nights' - now made famous by their appearance on ITV's 'Cornwall with Caroline Quentin'. You need to buy tickets, but the hut is generally open to everyone, except during the winter, so check times on their Web site.

Stunning in every way
Wonderful outdoor dining overlooking the beach. Unmissable. An easy walk over uneven paths.

Found this on our 2nd visit to the beach as so well hidden. Great quality interesting food and drink. A proper oasis

Lovely food.
Locally cooked food a must if you are visiting this beach.

Beware under-cooked brownies
Stomach upset after a coffee and undercooked brownie at the Hidden Hut in June.

Over priced
Expensive, long queues, not very friendly. take your own refreshments or buy from friendly shop in Portscatho
August 2022
Best Tomato soup ever tested
Wow what a place! Nestled behind the beach and within walking distance. Absolutely amazing food, the menu is mouthwatering! Don’t be put off by the queues, service is very quick. We had the tomato soup and it was ‘the best tomato’s soup ever tasted’ ! Such amazing flavours! Definitely worth a visit! Beautiful views too! Well done the hidden hut and keep up the good work!
June 2022
A lovely experience
We can now see why this place is so popular! The service is excellent very friendly staff who take a minute to ask you about your visit while serving you. The food is beautifly cooked all be it presented in a takeaway box or cup the taste is incredible. My husband opted for the smoked beef chilli I had the Dahl served with flat bread both delicious. It was towards the end of our holiday otherwise we would have had lunch there every day.
March 2022
visited in March
Windy, sunny and busyish. Interesting changing lunch menu which comes in cartons you can take away or eat on site. Also usual snacks and drinks. No need to book in March.

Hidden Gem
Lovely little walk from the car park where you come across some steps, if you then take the steps immediately going up you then come across the stunning Hidden Hut, where the food is fantastic, may be a little pricey, but so worth it, especially sitting on the benches
October 2021
Amazing
We visited the Hidden Hut whilst on holiday last week. Gorgeous food. We had the watercress soup which was scrumptious. Really recommend a visit.

What a surprise . Very popular so be prepared to queue but you can enjoy the view of Porthcurnick beach and headland.
Excellent customer service.

Very enterprising!

A little gem
What a wonderful beachside find. It is super popular now so expect to queue, but it's is completely worth it with exceptional food, and a great beachside location. You won't regret a day out here. Check the website for opening times/days.
September 2019
Great food overlooking the beach
Not just another beach front cafe. This place is possibly the best beach cafe/restaurant going. Great food and atmosphere. Really hits the spot. You will not be disappointed and worth the effort.

Mrs Jarvis
Really fantastic food, great service (despite the length of the queue). You must visit!
June 2019
Perfect situation and great food
If you didn’t already know it, this a now a justly famous spit just above a lovely Cornish beach.
Splendid food - some fusion inspired and some more typical local Cornish. Great atmosphere. Also they have now a great Hidden Hut cookbook. Such a happy mix of photos and recipes!
April 2019
lush nosh
definitely recommend for a yummy beachside lunch
August 2017
Being relatively local to the area, we felt it was time to see if this often-mentioned beach cafe lived up to it's reputation....and it did! On a sunny August Sunday, the beach was busy and so was the Hidden Hut. Be prepared to queue - for quite a while - but once you've selected which of the mouthwatering options to go for, you've plenty of choice of places to sit and enjoy the really well cooked food and the amazing location. No doubt this will be the first of many visits to come!
November 2016
Wonderful location
Perfect for coffee and cake, overlooking Porthcurnick beach.
November 2016
Stunning place for a delicious lunch! Pricey but great quality. Locally sourced and freshly made. Busy on Bank holidays but worth the queue. Soups are always fabulous as are the pasties, pulled pork baps and sausage rolls. We were lucky enough to get tickets for a feast night once and it was a most memorable and special event. Check out their Facebook page https://en-gb.facebook.com/thehiddenhut/
Family and dog-friendly, Trebah covers 26 acres, converting a small corner of Cornwall into a sub-tropical paradise. Located above the Helford River, every inch of Trebah is covered by lush vegetation, with 100-year old rhododendrons, magnolias and camellias kicking off the season with an explosion of colour.

My Favourite Garden
Really lovely garden packed with Rhododendrons and Azaleas, Bluebells and wonderful trees (late April/May) running down a hidden valley to the sea.
October 2023
Colour
Visited in late September which meant Autumn colours hadn't kicked in but summer colour in the main gardens had gone over apart from the hydrangeas. Beautiful colour though in the court garden.
Lovely walk down to the beach where we enjoyed an ice cream looking out to sea.
September 2023
Mrs Wolfson
A privately owned stunning garden. There is now a footpath for wheelchairs right down to the beach. Interesting history as American troops embarked from there for the D day landings.
March 2023
Exotic dog friendly garden
Trebah is a wonderful exotic lush estate in a sheltered valley leading to a delightful small beach, where the water is crystal clear and blue. Paths cross cross the valley making it easy to view the gardens from different angles. Marvellous variety of plants and trees. It's dog friendly, as also is the cafe, which is light and airy, serving tasty food. In Feb 2023, a new walled garden was being constructed, which looks most attractive.
August 2022
Stunning
Gorgeous gardens with tall trees, amazing bamboo and hydrangeas and it’s own beach on the Helford river! Dog friendly, lots of different paths and routes and lovely ice cream on the beach! If it’s a lovely day take your swimming stuff, the beach was akin to a Greek beach, yachts and dinghy’s and clear water! Take your beach shoes!!

Lovely day out
We had a lovely day at Trebah in March. There were lots of colourful Spring plants including all the rhododendrons, camelias and magnolias, and a sea of fascinating gunneras that were starting to come out. When they are fully grown, the leaves can reach 2.5m across and there is a gunnera passage where you could walk underneath them. There’s also some giant bamboo and many interesting paths up and and down to the beach. We had a lovely lunch in the cafe and all in all, a great day out. Check the website and make sure you book in advance as they were only accepting pre-booked visitors. Also check the cafe closing time on the beach (ice creams etc) as it closed at 3pm when we were there.
March 2022
Wonderful exotic gardens
We visited in February and were surprised by how warm and mild the atmosphere was in the gardens. What a wonderful variety of plants, shrubs and trees! well laid out paths allow the visitor to wander around the grounds to access different view points. The beach at the bottom of the valley was a lovely surprise. We particularly liked the water feature cascading down the valley.
Excellent cafe in a delightful light and airy modern building. The entry fee is reasonable and good value for money.
September 2021
An enjoyable afternoon out
Thoroughly enjoyed our time at Trebah, September was a good time to visit as the hydrangeas were flowering beautifully. The beach was lovely as was the delicious ice cream!
September 2020
A disabled persons opinion
I was really looking forward to visiting Trebah but was really disappointed, I was only able to go out of the reception building in my wheelchair when I was faced with the most sever decline and was told that it was like that all the way. It was very unsafe for me to go any further, so had to turn round and go out of the gardens
August 2020
Beautiful gardens and beach
Well worth a visit. Really incredibly, calming gardens with excellent covid measures in place to feel safe. The private beach is just lovely, worth the short queue to get in (controlled by a traffic light system to ensure not too many people are on it are time). Nice cafe with gluten free options. A very good day out, would highly recommend.
May 2020
Best gardens to visit in the area
If you like to visit gardens then this is one of the very best in the area. We prefer it to the nearby Glendurgan gardens, though Glendurgan is run by the National Trust so you can get in for free if you are a member.

Excellent lovely gardens which as NT members (although Trebah is privately owned)
out of high season, can be viewed for very reasonable cost.
Best more natural gardens in the area in my view.
September 2019
Wonderful Gardens leading down to a lovely beach.
These gardens are truly fascinating and beautiful. We loved that the dog was welcome even in the cafe and the food and drink were all really good, healthy, well prepared and delicious.

Impressive gardens and picturesque beach
Beautiful gardens. Very pleasant staff and good food. The private beach was very picturesque. Would recommend.
September 2015
You won't be disappointed
What a wonderful place to lose yourself in nature discovering plants I had never seen before and some looked like they stepped out of Jurassic Park! We stayed into the evening for a fantastic Miracle Theatre production in the Amphitheatre called The Magnificent Three which was absolutely brilliant, great story, great cast and highly recommended, I will be looking out for their next production. Overall a very pleasing day with ice cream on the beach too, what more could you want!
July 2014
A mini paradise
This was such a wonderful find. A complete tropical paradise hidden away down the creek. You really feel like you have disappeared to a magical world here and it's a great place to escape. Beautiful water gardens and walks through the woods, which eventually lead down to a private secluded beach. Would happily come here time and again. Lovely cafe as well and there's also a cafe on the beach.
July 2014
Nice family day out
We visited the gardens on Father's Day (three generations of us!) and it was a lovely day out. It was interesting seeing all the exotic plants and following the path through the gardens to the private beach at the end where an ice cream sat on the beach is a must! The adventure play areas within the gardens were great for the kids.
June 2014
We hadn't heard about Trebah before we arrived but it proved to be a fabulous day out and the gardens were very special. Better than Eden in some ways and the weather on the day was perfect.
The walk down to the bay was superb. Also enjoyed the shop, cafe and garden centre.
May 2013
We have been to Trebah several times in the past, but the garden was at it's loveliest this time, with loads of spring flowers as well as the rhododendrons etc.
December 2012
I love trebah
Trebah is a brilliant day out, and the beach is gorgeous!!
September 2012
Trebah Garden
A really delightful garden with much to see. Although steep in places, there are plenty of benches to rest before venturing further.
The glimpse of the sea as you wend your way through the garden is really beautiful and really well worth the trip down to the bottom.
Well worth a visit time and time again.
June 2012
Gets better every time
We love Trebah Gardens, they are also dog friendly, though unfortunately we did see evidence that some dog owners were not respecting the fact that clearing up is a must if this is to continue. We really enjoy walking around the gardens and always spend at least three hours doing so. Always something different to see. Already looking forward to our next visit.
May 2012
We enjoyed that they are clearly continuing to develop and work on the garden in the 5 years since we last visited. Cafe very good and plenty of sheltered outdoor space. Plenty to see in May and an icecream on the beach was a great treat.
May 2012
Trebah Garden
Wonderful garden especially in May when we were there. A beach with a cafe half way round and the ubiquitous crab sandwiches in the cafe near the entrance. We could have spent a whole day here.
September 2011
A great place to visit. Even on a dull day this provided some great views and a fascinating range of plants. The beach was an added bonus. The restaurant provided a good range of dishes, including some gluten free choices.
September 2011
I can only endorse all that has been said before - the gardens are magical and inspirational, with a wonderful collection of hydrangeas as well as a magnificent bamboo thicket. The beach is a dear, with lovely views across the water.

Worth a visit, even on a wet day. The cream tea in the cafe was so good there is no chance it could ever be matched anywhere else. Enjoyed the shop too. We spent 2 hours in the property although it's not all that large, including time at the cafe. It's advisable to go early when it's really quiet.
August 2008
Suitable for young and old
I would recommend this garden for anyone. The walks around the garden can be taken at any pace and are endlessly fascinating for young children as well as older relatives. Even those who may not be as agile as they once were will be able to manage a good deal of the garden and there are plenty of places to stop, admire the view and rest. The staff are very helpful, always ready to discuss an unusual plant and the cafe is run by a group of very cheerful women, who provide simple but delicious food.
August 2008
A beautiful place, starting with formal gardens at the top, winding down through subtropical exotica to a small beach. We once went there on a winter's day where there was snow at the top of the garden and brilliant sunshine once you went through the doorway onto the beach; my children said it was like going into Narnia!

Walking
Trebah Gardens are excellent for all the family - there is also a beach below for children to explore. Kids can take part in the quiz as they walk around the gardens which makes for a more peaceful time for the parents!
A traditional pub in the heart of the village with a real fire. Under new ownership, pay them a call and say hello. Limited parking is available nearby and additional spaces can be found in nearby car parks.

Excellent
This is a delightful place to visit whether you want a quick coffee or a three course meal. The staff are friendly and the welcome is warm. A great variety of drinks behind the bar and food from the kitchen.

Very good food and service at this pub. It is probably best to book for an evening meal, although you can order a takeaway and eat it on the pub benches to the front.
Parking is somewhat restricted but we were lucky to find a space.

Fantastic Sunday lunch
We have had Sunday lunch here 3 years running and it doesn’t ever disappoint. Booking essential for the Sunday lunch. Fantastic selection of meats- we always go for the beef. Fresh vegetables brought out and all at a reasonable price. Good service.
October 2023
Sunday Roast
Disappointed visit as table booked at 3.15 and they had sold out of roast dinners.
Don't make our mistake, book in advance and for earlier than 3.15.
As compensation we were treated to free desserts.

Proper Pub!
Great old school pub, with a good atmosphere, food and beer. They way pubs used to be.
Historically one of Britain’s most vital ports, now home to the National Maritime Museum. Falmouth is a thriving resort (check out the flash yachts in the harbour), a rich centre for art, including one of the country’s best art schools, and a great collection of beaches.
October 2024
Beautiful and interesting
Falmouth is without doubt Cornwall’s most thriving town. Lots of artisan traders, interesting individual shops and some fantastic food offerings.

Maritime museum more interesting than I initially thought. It’s fun to take the 20 minute ferry from St.Mawes to Falmouth.

Hop on the ferry to Falmouth
Our second trip to Falmouth on the ferry which we all love. Falmouth has a great variety of restaurants and lovely independent shops. Would particularly recommend The Harbour View restaurant…amazing meal very reasonably priced there.
October 2022
I do love a museum…
The maritime museum in Falmouth is well worth a visit for everyone of all ages. So much to see and learn. It also has a very fine shop..!!!
July 2020
Ian McGrath
Liked the idea of shutting down the High Street to traffic between 10.00-16.00, which gave more space for pedestrians still nervous following lockdown. Recommend Harbour Lights Fish
March 2015
falmouth to st mawes
Would recommend the boat trip across to lovely St Mawes, pretty harbour town, great pub lunch in the Rising Sun conservatory....
January 2015
Winter break
Falmouth is good to visit any time of year and we have been in all seasons. Our recent visit in January was excellent. We found plenty to do despite some very mixed weather. As oldies we went to Rick Stein of or a vintage lunch served on Tuesday's until March very busy and cheap. We also visited Pendennis Castle and the Maritime Museum for another oldies lunch (Wednesday's) which included admission to the museum. The view on the Fal is lovely and we visited Newquay and Perranporth which out of season have beautiful deserted beaches to walk on.
February 2013
Falmouth and surrounding area
Falmouth has something for everyone ~ great beaches, great boating, good choice of restaurants and great accommodation. Easy access to other villages and lots going on ~ one great high street with everything you can imagine. ~Would recommend Amanzi restaurant ~ great place to eat with a South African twist.
Try visiting Mylor Harbour just a couple of miles away, great for walking and eating too. Dogs are welcome at many places in the area which is a bonus......having just spent a few days there in February will be returning again in June.
July 2012
Something for Everyone
Falmouth really does have something for everyone. Having just spent a recent week of mixed weather we were never stuck for something to do, even if it was just wandering and enjoying the bustle of local life. Everyone working in the shops, cafes, restaurants and local attractions were friendly and clearly enjoyed their work, which in turn made us feel welcomed.
Trips to St Mawes and the Roseland Peninsula via the chainlink ferry or by boat make for enjoyable days out.
We also enjoyed dinner and a concert at the Princess Pavillion, with its beautiful gardens that lead down to the seafront.
Hope to visit again soon.
July 2012
The National Maritime Museum is a superb informative way to spend best part of a wet day, as the number of families and school parties evidenced. As re-entry is free for a year after the initial entry fee we decided to browse the exhibitions for part of the morning, exited for lunch at nearby Rick Stein's Fish and Chip restaurant, which was delicious if a little expensive, then re-entered the Museum to finalize our tour. The Spring/Summer Search and Rescue exhibition was of particular interest as we support the RNLI.
November 2011
Best town in Cornwall
Falmouth is a very honest town, un-spoilt and un-commercialised, and as such I would rate it as one of the best towns in Cornwall. We have stayed here on holiday many times in various properties, and there is always plenty to do here, which is especially important with 3 young children in tow!
The maritime museum is definitely worth a visit if you are here, this is a high quality attraction which puts some of the other so-called landmark attractions in the county to shame (Land's End to name one). You could easily spend a whole week in the town itself without venturing further afield.
Avoid restaurants such as Stein's fish & chips, and venture into the heart of town for more authentic and better value food. Short ferry rides to St. Mawes and Flushing are great fun, you can even take a ferry to Truro on the high tides.
If beaches are your thing, then Gyllngvase beach is an un-spoilt beauty and is wonderful at any time of the year.
If you like pubs (and who doesn't) then go to the Chain Locker, this is one of my all-time favourite pubs and must surely be one of the best in the country. The quayside location, and the quite excellent beer, rate it very highly. The Boathouse at the top of the High Street at the entrance to the town is also excellent.
This is a great place to enjoy traditional fish and chips and you can either eat in and enjoy the stunning views across the harbour or take away. This restaurant has a handful of awards for its food and environmental awareness.
May 2024
Tasty food
Lovely chippy fish was very tasty batter light

Excellent Fish and Chips, with delivery service included, which meant the food was hot and ready to eat when delivered to your door. Used them a couple of times during our visit as quality was very good.
