Home / Locations / South Cornwall / Cawsand
Masts and sails point skywards as boats bob in the harbour swell. Skimming stones bounce, barnacles fizz and ice-cream sticky fingers get washed in the lulling tide. Tucked into the Rame Peninsula, Cawsand is a rare treat – a charming fishing village and beach less frequented by the summer masses.
Self catering holidays in Cawsand mean plenty of opportunity to explore the nearby coastline. Amble the short distance to Kingsand beach right next door, or for the more energetic, the high cliffs and stretching sands of Whitsand Bay are just over five miles away along the South West Coast Path. Leave the car behind and hop aboard the Cawsand Ferry from the beach, listening to the clang of anchors and the squawk of seagulls as the boat chugs across to the Cornwall-Devon border to Plymouth, where the city’s restaurants, cafes, pubs, and shops await. The ferry runs from Easter until the last Sunday in October.
