Cadgwith (5.0 miles)
Tucked away on the tip of the wild Lizard peninsula, Cadgwith is a gorgeous harbour village with ‘chocolate box’ charm by the bucketful. Thatched cottages line the narrow streets with evocative names like ‘Kiddleywink’ and ‘Dolphin Cottage’. The friendly village pub, the Cadgwith Cove Inn, is steeped in history and makes a great place for an evening meal – much of the seafood on the menu is landed at the cove itself. Pop in on a Friday night and you might just find yourself joining in with the weekly gig by the Cadgwith Singers.

Cadgwith (4.9 miles)
Cadgwith is an idyllic fishing village with thatched cottages spilling onto a tiny beach full of fishing boats. Park above the village and join the coastal path - you will see the large white dishes of Goonhilly Earth Satellite Tracking Station and then Lloyds Signal Station. Eventually you will pass the Devil’s Frying Pan, a 200ft drop to a collapsed sea cave where the sea flows through a narrow arch at high tide.
