God, it's remote down there. Even if you live in North Devon, it's a good two hour drive to get to Newquay or Truro.
Even London is 5-6 hours by train. Take it from me... take the sleeper train if you are anywhere near the main line!

I played in the Perranzabuloe chess club as a lad which is just inland of Peranporth but other than St.Ives and Hayle and Godrevy don't know the north coast at all.
I cycled around West Cornwall a fair bit in the summer, that was fun. Cycled Penzance to Cadgwith and stayed overnight there. The village time forgot...

Never tried Healeys. Unless they're the ones that do Cornish Rattler. Seems to be on draught in quite a few pubs now.
Also, related to Donald Healey, who first started car work in Perranporth.
Unfortunately I was driving last time we went.

later (if you forget the locals are still on a normal working day!)
Done most of the tourist stuff - Eden Project, Seal Sanctuary, Lizard, etc.
Still can't beat Healey's cider farm
