Top things to do in Cornwall
"It's been off-limits for many years to everyone except film crews, but since spring 2017 Charlestown's historic port has reopened to the public. You can now wander round the Georgian quays, and with a bit of luck, step on board a tall ship docked alongside the harbour, the Kasjamoor, built in 1939. It's worth ringing ahead to doublecheck the port is open, as it's sometimes closed for filming.Joint tickets with the Charlestown Shipwreck & Heritage Centre are available."

Best family friendly places to eat in St Ives
"In one unbeatable location, the West Beach Bakery on Porthmeor is the perfect place to hang out, watch the waves roll in and enjoy some tasty grub. The choice of food on offer is very much quality over quantity but there are still some great kids’ options to choose from and it goes without saying that with the waves lapping the shoreline a stone’s throw away, the view is simply stunning. The golden sands also make the perfect playground for the kids to enjoy while the grown-ups soak up the sun on the deck with a cheeky cocktail or two."

"It is, however, one that I eagerly look forward to re-opening. It is in the long building at the far end of Porthmeor Beach. To get to it you need to either walk across the beach, or go through Porthmeor Beach car park and down the steps."
Mentioned by Suitcase Magazine
Where to Eat in St Ives, Cornwall
"You’re basking in the midday sun, dozing to the lapping of waves when your stomach rumbles. The dilemma seems to be whether you keep your perfect beach spot or sacrifice it, get clothed and trek into the town for some food."
