Our View

For its sheer diversity of landscape, this relatively small stretch of Cornwall's north coast is hard to beat. Only a stone's throw from the popular seaside resort of Newquay, Holywell to Crantock offers you a haven of beaches, common land and coastline to explore. Exposed rocky headlands sit alongside spectacular sandy beaches, perfect for surfing or making sandcastles. Discover the hidden gem that is Porth Joke, a small cove that remains untouched by tourism. Whether you're looking for an easy stroll along the Gannel Estuary or a slightly longer coastal walk taking in the contrasts of Kelsey Head and Cubert Common, there are walks for everyone to enjoy. Visit West Pentire in the early summer to catch sight of spectacular displays of wild flowers.
