Interesting well preserved Tudor castle

Cliff Road runs along the sea front of Falmouth, the whole stretch offers wonderful sea views out across Falmouth Bay. To the left (east) you can see Pendennis Point and castle and St Anthony Head at the end of the Roseland Peninsula. The gap between these two points is the historically well defended straight into Carrick Roads and Falmouth harbour.

One of the fortifications and defensive positions built by Henry VIII to defend the country.

Small castle with great views, a few audio clips recreating life in the castle as it would have been during Henry VIII ‘s time.

Running the loop around Pendennis point is hilly and a bit tough in parts, but take it steady and you'll be rewarded with some amazing views.

Carn Brea Castle is an impressive structure, built into the rock on the top of Carn Brea. It is now a grade II listed restaurant, but was built in the 14th century as a chapel. Later, in the 18th century, the castle was altered into a hunting lodge. From high up here you can enjoy impressive views in every direction. In the 19th century, a beacon was lit here for ships to the north in the Atlantic Ocean. It has a lovely feeling of stepping back in time atop Carn Brea. To visit the restaurant check out the website. Booking is advised as it's a small, intimate dining space https://www.carnbreacastle.co.uk/

Coffee Van in The St Mawes Castle car park

A good cycling section, with good views. Bit of a push up the hill off the lovely smooth cycle path, but not too bad.
