With a population of around 20,000 the city of Truro is intimate and friendly whilst offering the facilities and cache that one would expect as Cornwall's capital.

Just nine miles from the south coast of Cornwall with its sandy beaches and breathtaking scenery, Truro lies on the confluence of the rivers Kenwyn and Allen. They combine to form the Truro river that leads into the River Fal and then on to the large natural harbour of Carrick Roads.
