Brilliant and free! My 7 year old loved the pumpkin quiz and the toy section. The wedding dresses and old medicines were also great. We had a lovely morning looking around and the staff were lovely and friendly too. A huge plus was that it is dog friendly.

Walked in as it looked well presented, what a lovely couple they were and we couldn’t resist buying a local piece of pottery so all good worth a look any time

We stayed in Avellan, a large, converted barn at Kestle Barton, which was perfect for a peaceful, off-the-beaten-tourist-track family holiday. The ancient farmhouse and its surrounding buildings have been beautifully and luxuriously converted to boast all modern facilities, while still retaining their charm. The setting is simply gorgeous, down narrow, winding Cornish lanes with hedgerows bursting with wildflowers, and from here there is an easy, circular walk to take in the Helford Valley, Fisherman's Creek (made famous by Daphne du Maurier in her novel of the same name) and the pretty, sleepy hamlet of Helford with its excellent pub, the Shipwrights Arms. There is a pedestrian ferry across the Helford river to walks along the opposite headland and explore gardens, much of this owned by the National Trust. Proceeds from the holiday accommodation at Kestle Barton support the upkeep of the art gallery initiative, and there is a lovely informal garden and wildflower meadow which are open to the public and provide a perfect spot to enjoy a coffee and cake or an ice cream. We would definitely love to return here.

A very conveniently located large sized apartment (4 adults and a dog) Plenty of modern equipment. Beautiful well equipped kitchen. Busy harbour but quiet and relaxing location. Tastefully decorate with comfy beds and a large sofa in the lounge area. Would certainly visit again. The owners are a lovely helpful couple who own the shop below which is very convenient if you require any help Wish I was there now!!!!

If you’re interested in radio or early communications then you will find this interesting. The volunteers who are here are friendly and helpful and have lots of information about the history along with local knowledge. Well worth a trip to visit, don’t forget to sign the visitors book and if you fell so inclined drop a small voluntary contribution in the box to show your appreciation.
8. Glazed Expression
GLAZED EXPRESSION is a studio gallery, in the picturesque west cornish town of Helston. Situated perfectly in the center of bustling Meneage Street, with ample car parking close at hand. Glazed Expression is the perfect stop off for anyone wishing to acquire some of the most exquisite ceramics and fine art available in the area. You will find the gallery space a comfortable and welcoming space to view the arts and crafts available, affording a very different atmosphere to most white space galleries. We aim to showcase art in a more homely environment, inviting customers to view the work on more familiar terms. To compliment the gallery Glazed Expression also has a working ceramic studio. Ady Barker is resident artist creating beautiful thrown and hand built artifacts, that can be purchased from the gallery.
