I visited this last year and was glad that my visit to Newquay this year, coincided with the festival.
Once again I was able to eat mackerel fillets that had been freshly smoked in a makeshift smoker built out of an old filing cabinet.

 18th July 2011 at 6:25 pmHad a walk through the woods at Trelissick and along the banks of the River Fal.
Had lunch and spent the afternoon in Falmouth. 8th May 2009 at 5:53 am
4th May 2009 at 9:48 pmTook a boat trip up-river from Falmouth to Truro today.
The deep river is being used to store around 20 large container ships that would normally be used to transport cars, but that are currently surplus to requirements because of the current state of the economy. 18th July 2008 at 5:52 pmThe day after Zennor and I am feeling it in my legs – an easy day was called for. Headed out to Pendennis Castle – somewhere I have visited often, but always worth it. 
Since my last visit there have been a few changes. First they have introduced guided tours to parts of the military installations that were previously closed to the public. Second, they now fire one of the guns every day at noon. 6th September 2007 at 7:00 pmSet off to Falmouth on the usual route and quickly hit some slow farm traffic. I knew that the major roads were not the most direct route so I hit (for the first time) the “Detour” button on the SatNav. |

The Tolverne restaurant (aka Smugglers Cottage) is situated on the riverbank between Falmouth and Truro. 
I had passed it on a couple of occasions as I travelled by boat and had been meaning to stop off for a visit for some time
