The Cornish Italian is hidden down a country lane just outside of Truro, and is home to some of the best homemade pasta, risotto, focaccia and tiramisu you'll ever taste.

While the restaurant isn't suitable for those with coeliac due to the flour in the air, all of their pasta dishes are available gluten free and several of their desserts too 🍝🍷

Owner Ugo does offer the occasional pasta making classes too, but I’ve heard these sell out really quickly, so keep your eyes peeled! �
📍 The Cornish Italian, Chenoweth Business Park, The Roseland peninsula, Cornwall.

Elderflower is a gorgeous little horsebox that's just opened its hatches for the summer on Exchange Quay in Falmouth. They're selling coffee, smoothies, ceremonial grade matcha, açai bowls and seasonal specials.

It's a beautiful spot to watch the sailing boats, jump on a ferry to St Mawes or book a boat trip from too.

📍 Elderflower, Custom House Quay, Falmouth

If you've been thinking of giving the pottery wheel a go or you're looking to improve, then I've just found a beautiful workshop in Redruth, Cornwall at Krowji where Jacqueline teaches wheel throwing to everyone from complete beginners through to advanced levels.

hosts 1/2 day, 1 day and 3 day wheel-throwing courses, bakes the yummiest lemon drizzle cake and managed to rescue my jug from ending up on the ceiling a few times.

Best suited to teens and adults, these workshops are perfect for a group of friends, a family or a cute date idea. Just head to the link in my bio and choose "Wheel Throwing" to book.

Have you had the chance to meet Leroy, local four-legged legend of the Falmouth high street? He's usually scouting out his next customers and chin scratches, welcoming visitors of Leroy's cafe from near and far to try their wonderful homemade focaccias, breakfast burritos, locally baked cakes and seasonal drinks.

Leroy's are open daily, serving vegan and gluten-free options with wonderful sea views, the friendliest service and plenty of free puppy therapy.

📍 Leroy's, 45 Church Street, Falmouth.

The Sweets Dairy vending machines are open 24/7, in St Newlyn East just outside of Newquay. They're selling fresh milk, milkshakes, ice cream, coffee and cake.

This is such a great stop on a cycling trip, or if you need a Friday night ice-cream fix 🍦
