Impressive cliffs, stunning coastline and a long golden beach backed by dunes – discover self catering holiday cottages in Porthtowan, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Trace the dramatic coastline and mining heritage from St Agnes and you’ll end up in Porthtowan. Its Blue Flag awarded beach is its big draw – one of Cornwall’s most popular surfing spots backed by large dunes and dramatic cliffs. Low tide exposes a long expanse of which you can walk along to Chapel Porth, the next equally as stunning beach managed by the National Trust. Holidays in Porthtowan offer the true Cornish experience, not a dull moment in sight.
The coastal path between the two – and further along to St Agnes – takes in some of the county’s best remains of its rich mining heritage with stunning views out to sea. This is a wild part of the coast with RNLI lifeguards patrolling the beach from May to September and other peak times.
Back in the village there’s a number of family-suited restaurants, cafés, bars, shops, surf equipment hire, and a children’s play park – if they ever get bored of cricket on the beach.
