Update April 2022
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 21st Apr 2022
No changes
Some excellent pubs and restaurants around the Harbour
Written by robinkm | 17th Aug 2021
A few good eateries now around the harbour, Tapas, fish and the new Harbour Light pub, (St Austell). Molly's, Crab & Hammer, TJ's (evenings) - A fair choice for lunch or dinner.
UPDATE SPRING 2021
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 6th Apr 2021
I reviewed these notes in April of 2021. They've got a new pontoon for visiting boats on the East Quay but I'm not sure whether you'd dry out on it. Prices have gone up and note that the toilets are locked at night.
UPDATE SPRING 2018

Tariffs are being held for this year; little else has changed
Update Spring 2016

These notes were reviewed by Don in May 2016. We note that there is now a pontoon alongside the East wall for visiting boats. Tariffs have been increased.
