The south coast is 5mins drive and the north coast 45mins. Mevagissey, Gorman Haven, Fowey and Charlestown are within an easy 20 mins drive or less. There are too many things to see and do to list here but we have box files full of brochures to meet all interests. In our 'Home' file we have some day trips that we recommend.
