A very atmospheric spot ...
We visit many similar sites and have read enough to be able to imagine how the site was possibly used. Might have been nice to have more info boards for those not completely tuned in to that period in history ... there is a board at the entrance gate but a few more unobtrusive boards dotted about would be useful for many visitors.
Perfect spot for a dog walk whatever the weather as long as you are wrapped up, and some amazing views.

Great place to have a gentle walk, fresh air and a great view. Dogs on a lead due to sheep. Great even in the mist and will some light drizzle!

The monument is a good walk from the small car park. The footpath is fairly even and the area is very peaceful.
The views are amazing from the top with a 360° vista. There is a plaque that explains what you can see and allows you to orient yourself.
The ditches and ramparts can still be made out and there are burial mounds within.
Beautiful place.

Historically significant. Plaque explains full history. Allegedly, spookiest place in Cornwall? Graduated mound with great 360 views. No actual ruins or such like here. Approx half dozen free parking spaces. Approach is very uneven and rocky, not for low sports cars! No facilities. Sheep lose but we'll behaved dogs welcome. I would say great for history nerds and dog walkers.

The hillfort is surrounded by three ramparts and ditches, one of which is of a noticeably slighter construction and indicates either an earlier phase of occupation, or the remodelling of the ramparts. There are two Bronze Age barrows, now in a rather poor condition, in the interior and these may represent the initial use of the site around which the later enclosures were built. Alternatively, the several gaps within the slighter bank have led to speculation that they are multiple entrances and this is in fact the remains of a Neolithic causewayed enclosure which would pre-date the barrows and indicates an even earlier origin for the site.

Really atmospheric hill fort. Easy to find, good parking. Rather wet underfoot but it was November when we went. Easy walk up from the carpark, and an amazing view when you get up there. Lovely walk.

It depends how interested you are in history: mainly you'll see a circular rampart of stones and turf. However, if you are interested in the period, or just like wild places, it's an important sit of its type. Also has further history attached....Civil War, murder, execution. Also 2 rare minerals for geologists!
