This welcoming pub offers a warm welcome to all - assisted by a wood burning stove in the winter months! They have many special deals throughout the week if you are planning to eat out - check their website for more information.
St Agnes' pride and joy, Trevaunance Cove boasts the dramatic aesthetics typical of Cornwall's north coast. Soaring cliffs and golden sands are complemented by a labyrinth of caves and the almighty Atlantic lapping at its shores. Popular amongst families and sport-lovers alike, Trevaunance Cove is not one to forget.
Set on the cliff tops, this pub offers stunning views and a sun trap beer garden. A great place to stop off when walking the coastal path!
This stunning walk will take you along the coastal path around St Agnes Head. En-route you will pass Wheal Coates Engine House and then climb up the Beacon for a panoramic view from St Ives to Newquay.
St Agnes lies in the heart of Cornwall's mining heritage; all along the coast here you'll see old mining engine houses rising from the cliffs. The steep and narrow streets here are lined with almost unbearably quaint, higgledy-piggledy cottages.
Chapel Porth beach near St Agnes is very picturesque with ruins of engine houses, but it can get busy in summer and there are only rocks at high tide, so choose the timing of your visit.
This extensive family pub has a warm and welcoming feel about it. There are plenty of individual dining areas - including the light and airy conservatory, or if you prefer an intimate dining experience, there are some smaller dining booths. There is a vast menu - sure to satisfy all the family!
This pub has a funky retro feel to it and offers a relaxed informal dining experience. They often have live bands performing - please check their website for further information.
A bit of a north coast institution with breath-taking views, guests can dine in either the restaurant or more traditional pub, complete with three bars and real fire. There are two beer gardens to enjoy in the summer, one of which is right next to the South West Coast Path, making it a handy stop off for an en route pint or bite to eat.
With the soaring Gull Rock standing proud on the horizon, Portreath beach is certainly visually striking. Once a working port, the beach is now a firm favourite amongst bodyboarders, surfers and water-lovers, and boasts the advantages of easy access, parking and numerous facilities close to hand.
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.
