Area: Whilst at Trehanoo you could holiday for the week and never get in your car. The house and annexe are a 7 minute walk to Polzeath beach and the same to the coast path. From the coast path you can either walk the pretty way to the surfing beach of Polzeath, or head towards Greenaway (a 10 minutes walk), Daymer (a 15 minute walk) or Rock (a 45 minute walk).
THE CLIFF WALK TO POLZEATH BEACH
​
Walking along the North Cornwall coastal path from the house to the beach takes about 15 minutes but is absolutely stunning
Polzeath - 7 minute walk along the road - has a great Spar shop and offers fish and chips, pasties, pizza and ice cream as well as some great surf and clothing shops and a gallery.
Walking along the coastal path this is the order in which you come across the beaches over 45 minutes
Greenaway - 10 minute walk along the coast path - is a wonderful place for rock pooling when the tide is out and the hours just drift past as you become totally absorbed in shrimping, crabbing and fishing.
Daymer Bay - 20 minute walk along the coast path - has a large car park that is very reasonable to park in all day and is sandcastle heaven and one of the best windsurfing spots in the country. At low water it has a vast beach. A trip to Daymer Bay wouldn’t be complete without taking in the endearingly crooked spire of St Enodoc Church, which can be found nested within the rolling greens of the world-famous St Enodoc Golf Course. This fantastically historic church is the resting place of the famous Poet Laureate Sir John Betjeman who spent much of his childhood in the area. This inspired many of his poems which you won’t find hard to believe with the scenery you find yourself surrounded by.
Rock Beach - a 45 minute walk - has several pubs/restaurants with wonderful views over the Camel estuary, great shops and also has sailing and a sailing/ powerboat school, water skiing and a waterski school, fishing trips and the ferry to Padstow.
