Description
Penryn is an historic port on the south coast of Cornwall, chartered in 1236. During the 19th Century, the town was known for the export of granite, used in such buildings as the Bank of England and many of the country's lighthouses. The town is home to Penryn Campus, a large university campus occupied by two institutions - Falmouth University and the University of Exeter. Over recent years the area has thrived, due to a significant increase in student population, in turn having a positive impact on local businesses. The scenic Helford River is a short drive away, with areas such as Falmouth, Truro and Helston in close proximity, making this attractive town a perfect place for those seeking a quieter lifestyle, while being conveniently close to the liveliness of larger towns. Penryn Methodist Church boasts a prime, landmark position within the middle of Penryn's high street. Penryn train station is located approximately 0.5 miles away, which provides regular train services to Falmouth and Truro. There are direct and regular trains to and from London Paddington via Truro Station (journey time circa 4.5 hours). In addition, there are regular bus services running from Penryn town centre, servicing the local areas and wider Cornwall.
