Minehousedoor Cove
Aptly named because of the mine located directly above it, this beach is mainly sand and rocks. It forms part of the Tregardock beach area with Trerubies Cove at the southerly end. With limited parking this beach is rarely crowded and offers a wide sandy area at low tide. Whilst not recommended for swimming, there are some great rock pools and dogs are allowed year round. Do watch out for the tide!

Set on a hilltop and less than two miles from the sea, this pub is a good stopping off point when you are touring the north Cornish coast. Parking is available and they have a good selection of beers and real ales.

Backways Cove
You'll need to be pretty determined (and fit) to reach this rocky cove as access is from the coastal path up and down several hundred steps. An alternative route leads through fields from Black Hill opposite the turning down to Mill House Inn. There are no facilities and swimming is not advisable unless the sea is calm.
