A circular walk at the confluence of the Truro and Tresillian rivers, once defended by Moresk castle and later where timber for the mines was unloaded and floated as rafts into Truro. 3.8 miles. Steepness: easy-moderate.
There is a little car parking area at the end of the road just past St Clement church. Start from here and walk through the wodds alongside the estuary. Nice seat half way round, ideal coffee stop! When you reach the little stream turn right up the hill to return. (Or for a longer alternative turn left to Malpas village where you could visit The Heron for lunch before retracing your steps.

A beautiful building with super acoustics and a very friendly and generous clergy! I enjoyed singing there for a week with the Alleyn Singers and hopefully will get the chance to sing there again.

Deep in the heart of the Cornish countryside, we've been making the most of our orchards for over 30 years. Whether it's getting to the core of great flavour or thinking outside the box, we know what it takes to make apples special. Optional tours and experiences take you on a Cyder making journey - from apple to Cider! Take a tractor ride through our Orchards, and sample at least 20 varieties of Cyder, wine and preserves.
What a wonderful surprise treat for my husband's special birthday. An interesting Master Guided Tour, given brilliantly by knowledgeable Dean, all staff were smiling, friendly and helpful, drink tastings and food delicious, all in a relaxing atmosphere. Super experience. Tour and bottle of whiskey paid for by family but generally entrance and tastings free. We will definitely be visiting again.

Here at Callestick Farm we use fresh milk all from our own grass fed herd of Jersey x Friesian cows, local cream & then add the finest fruits & confectionery to create flavour upon flavour of dreamy, ice creamy indulgence! Our ice cream parlour located in the heart of Cornwall serves a variety of treats including hot waffles, our ever popular Cornish cream teas... (Remember - jam first!) And of course our ice cream sundaes! Head up to the Viewing Gallery where you can watch our production team in the factory making our delicious ice cream! We are perfect for an afternoon relaxing in our sunny courtyard, after a day at the beach or to shelter in our parlour when the Cornish weather is doing its thing. Our philosophy is simple; a balanced diet is an ice cream in each hand.
James, Dan and Josh all loved the play area, the big deck chair and the cow. They liked watching the ice cream been made then eating it. Brilliant day out for the whole family
