A weekend in Falmouth: an accessible itinerary
2 days For wheelchair & limited mobility Built from visitor-rated places
This is a gentle two-day plan for wheelchair users and anyone with limited mobility. All three attractions, The End to End Story, Greeb Farm and King Edward Mine, state disabled access. Day one keeps distances short: 1 mile to lunch at The Old Success Inn, then 1.2 miles on to Greeb Farm. Both lunch stops hold a 5/5 food hygiene rating, but neither lists its access, so ring ahead.
Day two has the weekend's one longer drive, 21.6 miles to King Edward Mine, then just 3.5 miles to Lanner Fish Bar, which opens Tuesday to Saturday only. Travelodge in Camborne, Teneriffe Farm Campsite and Trethem Mill Touring Park all state disabled access. Trethem Mill is 3.6 miles from Falmouth Docks station and 1.3 miles from Porthcurnick beach, rated Excellent by the Environment Agency. Polurrian Hotel doesn't list access, so confirm first. Wherever you go, check parking, toilets and lifts with each place before booking.

Day 1
Start at The End to End Story, then it's just 1 mile to The Old Success Inn (open 08:30–21:00 daily) and 1.2 miles on to Greeb Farm, so time in the car stays short. The inn doesn't list its access, so call ahead about step-free entry and accessible toilets.
Day 2
Allow for the longest leg of the weekend, 21.6 miles from Greeb Farm to King Edward Mine, then a short 3.5 miles to Lanner Fish Bar, where lunch is served 11:30–13:30. It opens Tuesday to Saturday only, so plan this day for a Saturday and check its access before you set off.
