Advantages: Hidden nooks and crannies crammed with treasures

Disadvantages: None

I used to work in a little village called Perranaworthal about 5 miles from Truro. I would go to Truro for the shopping and to while away my days off. What a fabulous city Truro is. At every turn you will find little hidden alleys and courtyards crammed with craft shops, book shops, taverns and eateries of every hue from seafood to curry, cream teas and tapas bars. Don't expect to watch your waistline here.

Potter around the Antiques Market for a while, you will be surprised what you can find, then pop upstairs for a rare treat. Above the Antique market is the unique Charlottes Tea House. You can sit and enjoy your excellent House Tea from fine bone china and served by waitresses in Victorian Uniforms. It's a lovely cosy place perfect for meeting friends.

Take a walk through the windy streets around the Cathedral and meander around the distinctive art galleries and chic little boutiques. Typically Cornish it makes no attempt to be like other cities, and neither should it. It is a gem of a city and long may it shine.

Summary: Go there you'll find it hard to leave
