We love Porthpean beach! Calm seas very safe for children and great rock-pooling. Car park at the top of the hill charges £5 for all day stay or £3.50 for up to 5 hours or £2.00 for up to 3 hours (change required as no notes or card facilities). Kiosk / shop is pretty decent. Food, drinks, ice creams, etc and beach "stuff". Can hire kayaks / paddleboards - approx £15 p.hour. Really helpful & informative bunch doing the hiring. Able to see seals, plenty of fish and visit some secluded beaches.

Definitely worth a couple hours of your time if you are passing. Stunning views. Great place to take photos and to take 10 minutes out to just sit and enjoy the view. Used to visit regularly when we lived in Roche moved to St Austell but hopefully 2021 will be the year we return to the village!

I wanted to buy some guinea fowl for Christmas dinner. Not many other places sell them. I tried local butchers and supermarkets - no luck! Waitrose sold them but they were always out of stock and I couldn't order them. However, Lobbs sold them and I could order them and come in and pick them up at my convenience. They were very helpful regarding how many I would need for my party. They also sold partridges, pheasants and venison and all this could be pre-ordered. They also sell a wide range of organic, local produce, including artisan, local cheeses and locally produced wine. Friendly, helpful staff.

Atishoo Gallery is full to the brim with coastal inspired homewares, original art, prints, cards, jewellery, pottery and glassware. Now in their 17th year in the historic village of Charlestown, owners and artists Liz and Paul have built up a reputation for sourcing an eclectic range of gift-ware all designed or made in the UK. They also offer a bespoke picture framing service in the onsite workshop, framing everything from photos to original art and memorabilia. The gallery is based in a two storey barn conversion in a pretty courtyard opposite the chapel.

Charlestown Harbour is set on the rugged, stunning, South Cornish Coastline. Charlestown is the last open 18th Century Georgian harbour in the UK and is proud to be a UNESCO world heritage site. When you enter Charlestown Harbour you are transported back in time. The Harbour has a unique history and geography and remains a vibrant working port, with classic Tallships, beautiful beaches and great places to eat and drink whilst enjoying the breath-taking views
The harbour itself is picturesque and atmospheric with the Tall ships moored there. Shipwreck Museum is interesting and the tunnel of lights at Christmas was a unique and delightful attraction.

A circular walk through the King's Wood Woodland Trust reserve to the lost port of Pentewan, along the trackbed of horse-drawn tramway that once carried china clay to the busy port and via the system of reservoirs and sluices that were used to flush sand out of the harbour. 3.2 miles. Steepness: easy.

No dogs from 1st March to I think 31st October. Very nice little beach with great views. A little walk from main car park in Pentewan, which charges, but also a view spaces which don't charge, which are in a separate area to main car park. Worth a visit. One of my favourite beaches.

Crinnis beach has a very wide and long sandy beach, however, beware the beach does have quite a steep bank to the sea, not a problem, just something to be aware of especially with little ones. I, as Nanna to five Grandchildren and my family of parents, love the place. There is also a beach disco hut which holds fun beach discos with a food and drinks bar which is child friendly too. Great hidden little gem!
