Port Isaac and Port Gaverne (0.1 miles)
This walk enables you to explore two idyllic harbourside villages and the lovely wooded countryside between them. Port Isaac has classic Cornish character by the boat load - clusters of tiny whitewashed cottages, narrow twisting lanes and the lovely scent of freshly-caught fish.

Port Gaverne Cove (0.1 miles)

Port Gaverne (0.2 miles)
This sweet harbour village is a near neighbour of the better-known Port Isaac; it has just as much classic Cornish character yet remains relatively free of crowds in the summer. At low tide a small sandy beach is revealed along with rockpools that trap countless crabs, shrimps and tiny fish, providing hours of entertainment for children. Away from the beach, the whitewashed Port Gaverne Hotel tempts visitors with local seafood cooked to perfection.

Port Isaac (0.5 miles)
You might well recognise some of Port Isaac’s winding lanes and its harbour; the port has long been a star of both the big and small screens, most notably in ‘Doc Martin’ and ‘Saving Grace’. This is Cornwall at its most quaint with streets so steep and narrow that in many places cars simply don’t fit. For a great meal of fresh fish landed at Port Isaac’s harbour, the Edge Restaurant is a brilliant choice and somehow those panoramic views out to sea from the tables add to the flavour.

St Kew Harvest Shop (4.1 miles)
All the food here is Cornish; organic Bodmin Moor mutton, Bude ewe's milk hallumi cheese, oak smoked paprika salami from Delabole. Drop in to the tea room for some home-baked treats. The coffee is heavenly too; they grind their own beans to make the perfect cup. If you're on the hop on holiday, or just want to cut loose from the kitchen, ask about their hampers: cream teas, picnics, breakfast, lunch or dinner - they'll even box up a traditional Sunday roast, all you have to do is put it in the oven!

Polzeath Beach (4.5 miles)
Park right on the beach (be careful of the tides), stumble out of the car - and you’re on one of Cornwall’s finest surfing beaches. Shops, ice cream parlours and cafes tumble haphazardly towards the beach.
