There is a chocolate factory and craft centre with free admission, great for buying souvenirs and of course chocolate made on site. If it is your first time to Cornwall, you must visit the most southerly point of the UK The Lizard just under 3 miles away. Here you will find the original lifeboat station, the visitor centre at the lighthouse and some small gift shops. Why not wander down to the small stony beach then pop into one of the cafes for refreshment. On the way back stop at the village here you will find plenty of places to buy gifts, lovely pubs and good ice-cream and pasties. If you prefer to visit gardens then you will be spoilt. For the more energetic, take the circular walk from Mullion to Predannack passing Polhurian Cove and Mullion Harbour along the cliffs of the Nature Reserve. During Spring and Summer, it will be vibrant with wildflowers. Just download the iWalk app on your phone or tablet, once downloaded it doesn’t need a phone signal during the walk. Not only does it keep you on track but it gives you information about the history and nature along the route. If you don’t want to cook there are plenty of places to eat locally with a wide variety to choose from.
