Following the South West Coastal Footpath to the north east there is easy access to the picturesque port of Charlestown which is home to several tall ships and has often been used in films sets, adverts and TV series. The port offers an array of restaurants, bars and individual shops. Further along the coast is the coastal resort of Carlyon Bay which offers an 18-hole coastal golf course and there is a further golf course at Porthpean to the south west. Porthpean has an active sailing club and other nearby attractions include the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project. St Austell is the nearest town providing a wide array of leisure, commercial and retail facilities, out of town trading estates and supermarkets, numerous sports clubs, a large leisure centre and a mainline station that provides a direct link to London Paddington with approximate travel time of 4½ hours. The road links from St Austell to the A30 (Cornwall s main arterial road) are excellent and the A30 provides a largely dual carriageway link all the way to Exeter where it joins the national motorway network.
