From Pennance Point you can look south to Newporth Head. Considering how close to Falmouth you are, it's amazing how far away from anywhere you feel here.

Pendennis point provides beautiful views of the coast and is only a very short distance from busy Falmouth. The name comes the Cornish Pen (Headland) and Dynas (Castle). Dolphins and Basking Sharks have been spotted here along with more frequent visits from seals. Pendennis Castle began life in the 16th Century as a gun fort and has guarded the entrance to Carrick Roads (Falmouth Estuary) since. It is looked after by English Heritage and open to visitors.

Gwennap Pit was used by the renowned cleric John Wesley to give preaches from 1762 until 1789. Its unusual form is thought to be caused to a collapsed abandoned mine dig. After Wesley's death, villagers continued to use the pit for religious gatherings, a tradition which is still on-going. Local miners cut the circular terraces to make seats at the beginning of the 19th century.

Running up here to the summit of Carn Marth will reward you with beautiful views across rural Cornwall. This area is filled with reminders of the county's industrial past and here is o different with Harvey's Quarry to the north and Hick's Quarry to the east, now a serene pool.

The Trebah estate was first mentioned in the early 11th century. After that, it was long owned by Cornish landlords and changed its owners until the 1980s. Since then, the garden has been refurbished by its new owners and opened to the public in 1987. Already 160 years ago, the first trees were planted here. In Trebah, besides 100-year-old rhododendron, many other subtropical plants are flourishing today. The 500 bus takes just 20 minutes to Trebah Garden from Falmouth.
