The picture perfect harbour village of Polperro nestles in a sheltered valley on the south coast of Cornwall between its more famous neighbours Looe and Fowey. Dating back to the 13th century you can feel the history of the village all around you. This is a true Cornish hidden gem.
Pretty waterside village on the upper reaches of the River Fowey. Beautiful surroundings and lovely walks that will take you through the woods to St Winnow, a small hamlet with a truly delightful church that sits beside the water. The local farmer serves teas there in season! Walking back to Lerryn you can enjoy an ice cream or sample local produce from the pub.
Lostwithiel nestles in a beautiful valley on the banks of the River Fowey, once a busy shipping way for boats laden with tin destined for France and the Med. Today, Restormel Castle and St Bartholomew's Church remain as examples of the stunning architecture in this historic stannary town, where many a pleasant hour can be spent wandering amid the antiques shops and cafes.
A beautifully unspoilt Georgian harbour town and working port, Charlestown is a stunning little slice of history. At the harbour itself, there is often a variety of traditional ships, including tall ships, many of which are open to the public. The Charlestown Shipwreck and Heritage Centre has many exhibits detailing the seafaring history of the port, including the many sailing disasters the town has borne witness to. The village has two beaches, one either side of the harbour.
Located between Fowey and Mevagissey and just two miles from St Austell, here you'll find three beaches (Crinnis, Shorthorn and Polgaver) stretching over two miles. The clear waters make this a popular place with families for good swimming and snorkelling, Parking is conveniently located close by.
The picturesque little village of St Issey lies just two miles south of Padstow and two miles east of Wadebridge giving perfect access to both, and quick access to the rest of Cornwall. It is situated on The Saints' Way, a stunning coast to coast walk from Padstow to Fowey.
