A PICTURESQUE BEACH WITH THE SOUTH WEST COAST PATH ON YOUR DOORSTEP.

Mawgan Porth is a beach that gets it right. Just far enough out of Newquay to avoid the busy streets yet near enough to still benefit from the same rugged North Cornwall coastline, Mawgan Porth has a curve of yellow sand, foamy blue water and just the right size handful of tasty eateries. Little feet splash about in the trickling river and leave tiny footprints on the sand, perhaps joined by pawprints (as the beach is dog friendly all year round).

Experience the beauty of Mawgan Porth right from your doorstep with our holiday cottages just steps away from the beach.

The beachfront street is dotted with shops and cafes alike, alongside their activity center, King Surf. Try your hand at mastering the waves or let off steam at the seasonal crazy golf and pitch and put course, based near a historic Iron Age site.

If you fancy stretching your legs, take the steady amble up the South West coast path towards neighbouring Watergate Bay or Bedruthan Steps, where you can soak up spectacular panoramas.
