World Bellyboard Championships - Chapel Porth Beach

A retro, fun day out on the north coast, in early September.  On top of the action in the sea, you can also find a Cake Off.  All profits go to the National Trust: http://www.bellyboarding.co.uk/index.htm

The Falmouth Packet Inn Pub - Rosudgeon Nr. Marazion

Don't be fooled by the name - its not in Falmouth and Rosudgeon is near Marazion, on the way down to Penzance.  This pub has been award the best Dining Pub in the South West for 2013 and 2014 (Taste of the West Awards, covering Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset).  With that accolade, worth jumping in the car for: http://www.falmouthpacketinn.co.uk/index.html
