Located near the River Camel Estuary is the small village of Polzeath. This village is a well known place for surfers and beach lovers to come and explore. Around Polzeath is many holiday cottages and throughout the small village are restaurants and pubs serving up fresh local fish from Padstow and nice cool Cornish Cider all day, so after you’re done with a coastal walk or relaxing on the beach, take a trip to the local establishments and support the locals that live in this village.
Rinsey Cove is located inbetween Praa Sands and Porthleven and its off the beaten track. Owned by the National Trust but doesn’t see as much foot traffic as other National Trust beaches due to its location. Low tide shows a small sandy beach but high tide quickly takes that away and it really is a small scramble down to the beach which isn’t ideal for families. This stretch of coast is quite exposed to powerful swells so given the remoteness and lack of lifeguard cover care should be taken if you fancy a dip.
Mallet’s Cottage is based in South East Cornwall in the beautiful location of the Roseland Peninsula.
