Continue your adventure to Falmouth, a lively town with much to see and do, famed for hosting the National Maritime Museum, Pendennis Castle and Swanpool Beach. Those looking to get their steps in will enjoy scenic trails along the Porthleven Beach Cliffs, whilst the beauty of the Lizard Heritage Coast is not to be missed. The Stannary is a wonderful spot for a Cornish break, all year round.
Helston is located at the western entrance to the Lizard Peninsula, a sizable downland region bounded by a breathtaking coastline. Helston is a charming, bustling market town known for the Flora Day Festival and the unique Helston Folk Museum, which tells several tales and traditions surrounding the "Furry Dance." The Poldark Mine, one of the best underground experiences in the south west, is close by and provides information about the region's long mining history. On the Helford River, in a serene environment, is the National Seal Sanctuary, where watching seals frolic and eat provides hours of amusement. If you enjoy adrenaline-pumping thrills, Flambards theme park will keep you occupied all day long and also offers fantastic living history experiences. The harbour city of Falmouth is farther away, while Land's End is farther west. Helston is a fantastic vacation spot with lots of family-friendly attractions.

Eve
The apartment was not is a clean state, there was lots of dust on top of picture frames, four frames, skirting etc. there were marks on the walls as if a fizz pop had exploded and the bathroom had been âsurfaceâ cleaned but when sat in the bath and looking up the shower & poles were dirty. When I went to put a wash load on, the cupboard door fell off because it was only attached by a magnet and the door had come away from the door hinges. As we were worried this would fall off and injury our daughter or our dog, my husband went to the DIY shop over the road and bought things to fix it with. On another note, it would be helpful to have the address and postcode of the apartment clearly stated in the handbook in the section about where the nearest hospital etc is. My husband had a stroke on the Tuesday morning whilst eating breakfast and when I dialled 999 I was unable to find the information needed. Thank you. Eve Andrew

The only downside is that it is in the middle of the town next to a late opening pub/nightclub and both Friday and Saturday night we were kept awake by shouting and fighting from 2am until 5amish. All in all it was lovely and would stay again in the Stannary if we could move it's location!!

And we found it very noisy outside to 3 nights of the week, people gathering opposite the apartment until early hours found it very hard to relax.I wouldnât stay there again but would recommend it to the younger generation. We had problems with the hod couldnât cook and the lounge TV wasnât to good I had to keep trying switch it off then back on very hard when socket behind TV. Otherwise was ok
