A charming dog friendly inn conveniently situated in Rosudgeon and with ample parking. With comfortable interiors and separate dining room, it's a great place for either drinks or a meal. Food is always freshly prepared and dogs are very welcome.
Sand dunes to play in and level access from the car park make this a good choice for families with young children. You will find a cafe and shop here plus toilets and lifeguards in summer. Its a very popular spot for surfers and can get busy during August.
Overlooking the beautiful beach at Praa Sands, The Welloe is a contemporary restaurant/diner with a laid back vibe and fabulous views. Enjoy live music in the evenings and food and drinks throughout the day. Families and dogs are very welcome.
An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Loe Bar is a sandbank that formed in the 12th or 13th Century. Strong currents make it unsuitable for swimming here, but it is a popular spot for sea fishing and kite flying, while Loe Pool is a haven for bird watchers. The area is great for walking; particularly the circular walk from Porthleven around Loe Pool.
A lush river valley landscape of ancient woodlands tumbling down to the banks of the still, blue waters; the views will not disappoint. Utterly undisturbed, with little pockets of civilisation popping up at convenient intervals, anywhere along the Helford River will make for the perfect holiday. Kick off your deck shoes and dangle your toes in contentment, you'll feel a world away in seconds.
A traditional Cornish pub with roaring log fire to keep you warm in winter and lots of outside seating with a sea view for the summer months. Car parking is available and dogs are welcome. A popular place, best to book ahead at busy times.
Locally caught fish, 'n' chips to take away or eat in the small restaurant.
A wide swathe of sand that draws families here every summer, Praa Sands beach faces south and is said to benefit from the longest sunshine hours of any place in the country. Praa Sands is one of the few south coast bays to enjoy great, consistent waves and as such is a magnet for surfers.
Traditional thatched pub reputed to have been frequented by Marconi, The Old Inn serves a good range of bar and restaurant meals and a good Sunday roast. Eat on the patio outside when the sun shines, there is an abundance of seating and you can marvel at the splendid hanging baskets, some of the largest you will surely ever see.
This delightful pub offers a warm welcome to all. There are regularly live bands playing at the pub. In the summer months why not enjoy a drink and perhaps a bite to eat out on the decking whilst you take in the magnificent sea view!
A few years ago, the Classic Cottages team started writing about where we live and why we love it. Over time these have evolved into the Classic Guide.
