Bude is lovely. Grew up there.

I recommend getting fish and chips, a tin of beer, sitting on a bench overlooking a beach with the tide coming in and the sun going down. Best thing in the world

Verdant in Falmouth is the beer wanker destination I’m sure, but the tour of St Austell is nice, it’s an old Victorian tower brewery, and Tribute, Proper Job and HSD are all lovely beers on cask if they’re in good nick in a decent pub.

I’ve only really spent much time in Padstow, which is nice enough, very touristy and Rick Steiny (no bad thing), there’s a good bakery which does the Chuff Challenge, a pasty the size of a rugby ball or near enough, have a crack at that.

I’m not sure if it’s worth a visit on holiday, but the hidden viaduct in Penryn (near Falmouth) is truly lovely and one of the few places in Cornwall I can remember fondly without caveats.

Went on many family holidays to bude and the surrounding areas, widemouth bay, crackington haven. Will always hold good memories, surfing on crooklets and summerleaze beaches

Go and visit Rick obviously

Ohh porthtowan tidal pool is a nice tiny little tidal pool but only if you’re on the beach in first place I’d probably not go there just for that. Although chapel porth nearby has a pub right by the beach

Lovely part of the world. Didnt appreciate it when i lived there. Will move back one day for sure

Is there some kind of Aphex Twin sightseeing tour I can go on? Half joking here…

Check out a beer called Doom Bar. Really fresh down there.

You…could.

Gwennap pit is probably the one place that’s more of a…thing to see and do.
Logan Rock has a nice story but I don’t think I’d go and see it.

Erm. You could visit the Bowgie inn…or Carn Marth.

I did a bit of an Aphex Twin mission over the summer when I was visiting my mum. Climbed around on loads of rocks and into loads of caves but managed to find…

Go to redruth :man_shrugging: (and Gwennap Pit)

Oh yeah. St. Michael’s Mount is actually pretty cool to look at. I’ve only ever been across in winter when it’s all closed so I’m not sure how good it is over there.
