lovely sandy beach sheltered by sand dunes and a National Trust headland,
is 600 yards away or

but 30 yds via a footpath).
There is a small
general stores right next to the beach, a local pub
and in St Merryn (2
miles) a range of shops, including Post Office and baker. Trevose Golf
Club (Championship 18 hole & 2 short courses and tennis courts) is 2 miles
away. Padstow, a picturesque harbour town with interesting shops and Rick
Stein’s Seafood and other restaurants, is 5 miles away. Other award
