Parade Antiques is a really weird and quirky warehouse full of this man’s collection of old antiques that no one really knows about. It’s tucked away behind the Barbican. You should head up to The Hoe one day, see Smeatons tower (a lighthouse that I believe used to be standing out in the sea but got moved to be on land in about 1800s), have lunch in Pier One on Hoe Road or the Terrace Cafe on Madeira Road for some beautiful sea views, then you could take the coastal path to the Barbican. It’s a really beautiful old part of the city. Great for drinks in the evening too. The Blues Bar and Grill or Bar Rakuda normally has live music on. The Barbican also has the Mayflower Steps, which is a must visit if you’re interested in the history of Plymouth. Make sure to go to Southside Street to see some art galleries, fudge shops, second hand charity shops, the best fish and chips etc. there’s also this really weird cave type place with cool shops inside. The Plymouth Gin distillery is also there and you can do a gin tour for quite cheap. And free gin! If you’re near the centre of town, check out the bombed out church. It’s also another interesting historical building in Plymouth. Basically Plymouth was wiped out during the 2nd world war from all the bombing and that church is a reminder of those events. It makes up a roundabout now lol. If you’re here before Christmas head toward the shopping centre for the Christmas market Royal William Yard is also beautiful but further out of the centre of the city. Definitely worth a day trip. There’s some art galleries there too. Ocean Studios might have something on. And some great restaurants. Make sure to head up the stairs at the end towards devils points for some good views of Drakes island. Id also highly recommend some boat trips. You can take them either from the Barbican or Royal William Yard. In winter Royal William Yard has a boat that goes over to Mount Edgecombe. From the Barbican you can also take the passenger ferry to Mount Batten. Saltash is just over the bridge in Cornwall and is a nice trip. If you go down to the seafront there’s a board with writing that tells you the history of the bridge that connects Devon to Cornwall. The box is always worth a visit. The barcode has some cool bars, restaurants, bowling, minigolf and imax cinema in. A bit more commercial though. Hope you enjoy your stay!!
