Explore Cadgwith and its Surroundings
|
|
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.

Kynance Cove
(2.5 miles)
Probably the most photographed beach in the area - the rugged, rocky coastline, caves and gleaming white sand make it one of Cornwall’s prettiest.

The Lizard
(1.7 miles)
Start in the Lizard village and go past Pentreath Cove, a locals' surfing spot, and Lion Rock, across Lizard Downs and down into Kynance Cove. Enjoy the beach - there is a cafe here for refreshments and then go up the cliff on the other side to do a big loop of the nature reserve. You will pass some ancient settlements and highland cattle and then go back towards the Lizard following the raised footpath across the fields. You can finish with one of Ann’s famous pasties on the green.

Terence Coventry Sculpture Park
(4.2 miles)
Strong figurative sculptures are displayed on the cliff top here above Coverack. Coventry has a habit of sculpting animals that have been familiar to him through his years as a Cornish pig farmer, such as bulls, cows and birds. His work has been exhibited at the Peggy Guggenheim, Venice, the Royal Academy and the Gallery Pangolin, Gloucestershire to mention just a few.

The Old Inn
(3.9 miles)
Traditional thatched pub reputed to have been frequented by Marconi, The Old Inn serves a good range of bar and restaurant meals and a good Sunday roast. Eat on the patio outside when the sun shines, there is an abundance of seating and you can marvel at the splendid hanging baskets, some of the largest you will surely ever see.

The Lizard
(1.6 miles)
The Lizard peninsula has an inspiring sense of isolation - surrounded on three sides by the sea, you really do feel you’ve found the edge of the world here. The Lizard village stands at the most southerly point in England and is the ideal starting place for a walk around the wild Lizard coastline, which is dotted by stunning, deserted coves. It’s said that the best Cornish pasties in the county come from the Lizard Pasty Shop; they are so popular that during the summer you need to order in advance.
