Must See Sights and Landmarks in Kynance Cove. **** Area

"Breathe in the sea air and stroll along the seafront towards the unmissable sight of Pendennis Castle perched on its headland. Built over 450 years ago by Henry VIII to defend the country against invasion, this mighty fortress sits opposite its sister castle in St Mawes to make a powerful defence for the entrance to Falmouth harbour. The castle has seen action in many conflicts and was one of the last royalist strongholds to fall during the English Civil War."

"Explore one of Henry VIII’s finest coastal fortresses, Pendennis Castle, which has defended Cornwall against foreign invasion since Tudor times."

"Looming up in the middle of Mount's Bay and connected to the mainland at Marazion via a cobbled causeway, this abbey-crowned island is an unforgettable sight, and one of Cornwall's most iconic images. Initially a Benedictine monastery, and later the seat of the St Aubyn family, it's a must-visit. You can catch the ferry (adult/child £2/1) from Marazion at high tide, but it's worth arriving at low tide so you can walk across the causeway, as pilgrims did centuries ago."

"St Michael’s Mount – Accessible by a man made causeway, the Mount (as the locals call it) is a tidal island just off the coast that is home to a small population of about 35 people. On your visit, explore the small village and head to the castle at the summit for spectacular views."

"The Cathedral's magnificent triple spires dominate the city. Although it appears old, it was only started in 1880, taking just 30 years to complete. The building incorporates part of the original 16th century church of St Mary."

"This wonderful medieval house and garden was the family seat of the Godolphin family who, during the 17th and 18th centuries, were one of Cornwall's great mining dynasties. The main house is still undergoing restoration by the National Trust: tours of the interior run on most days (check ahead), but the wider estate can be explored on your own. With acres of woodland, riverside walks and lawns to roam, it's hard to think of a more tranquil place for a stroll."

"Falmouth is a town on the coast of Cornwall in southwest England. It’s known for its deep natural harbour on the Fal Estuary, and beaches like Swanpool and Gyllyngvase. The National Maritime Museum Cornwall has interactive galleries and a flotilla of model boats. On Pendennis Point, Pendennis Castle is a well-preserved 16th-century fortress built by Henry VIII."

"Strategically sited to command an uninterrupted field of fire over the entrance to Falmouth Bay in tandem with Pendennis Castle, on the opposite side of the estuary, St Mawes is one of the network of 16th-century coastal fortresses built by Henry VIII, and is also among the best preserved. Cloverleaf shaped, with circular towers around a central keep, it's approached via a classic drawbridge, and you can wander freely around the interior chambers and the outside gun decks."

"Set above the harbourfront, Balcony Bar is the ideal place to retire with a crisp pint after a big day at the beach. With a few great brews on tap, the bar offers a food menu that is laidback yet perfect for its locale. The tacos were so good we went back multiple times for more (two fish, one prawn for me, please!) and the burgers are juicy and sauce laden – everything you could want to punctuate a holiday evening."

"📍 Green Street ·  sea views  ·  open fire  ·  restaurant  ·  pets allowed. The Yacht Inn is a pub with rooms set in a bright-white art deco building by Penzance Promenade. As it’s a St Austell Brewery pub you can expect excellent local ales, perfect to wash down a delicious meal made from locally sourced ingredients."
