Is it worth visiting Falmouth Cornwall - From slums to smuggling and how to live to 100 yrs old!

Cornish Walking Trails

In this video we return to Falmouth to show a wonderful town walk steeped in history, interest and curiosity.

Falmouth was described in a book called ‘The King’s England Cornwall’ by Arthur Mee written in 1937 as “Built up in a bay is the modern pleasure town of Falmouth ; but the real Falmouth lies back about its street running all the town’s length, with the grey houses and the church piled up behind it and alleyways slipping down on the other side to ancient wharves and quays. Along this street have rolled smugglers and preventive men, King’s sailors and privateersmen,for it led the way to the harbour which has sent our ships whenever there was an enemy to be fought, a prize to be won, or money to be made.”

Join us as we wander the streets, alleys and opes in search of the real Falmouth, with forgotten stories from it’s past, together with the usual blend of musings and merriment.

The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film our walks around Cornwall and publish on YouTube, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!

Frequently asked questions:
What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII

How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book three times. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.

Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.

What is your dog’s name?
Sorry but we do not release the name of our dog, perhaps you can make up your own name for him.
