Food scene
They’re a small convenience store, off licence and post office. They also sell fresh bread, cakes as well as Cornish pasties. They have a takeaway breakfast and lunch menu. They do a great English breakfast and the crab salad and beefburgers are also yummy. Sometimes they do a pizza night, watch for the board outside and order in advance.

Beaches
A rough sand, single and small stone beach and rockier than the beach at Gorran Haven. Never the less in the height of the season it is quieter than the village beach.
There are no facilities on the beach. There is a National Trust car park at the top with a 10 minute walk down to the beach. It's about 15 minutes back up so you may not want to take a lot of stuff with you.
There is also a great cliff path walk from the village to this beach.
If you've seen the film About Time, this is the beach.

The main beach in the village. A soft sandy, gently shelving beach. Gets very busy in the height of the season. Dogs must be on a lead from Easter to September. It being in the village there is a cafe and public toilets up the road. You can also rent kayaks and SUP's.

A beautiful fishing village. Lots of different shops and places to eat. There’s the ferry to Fowey in season and weather permitting. Also boats run fishing trips from here.
As a child this was our first stop on holiday- sausage and chips on the quay. Magical memories.
