Turn left for the lighthouse, right for the cove. This page is what we tell everyone who asks: the walks, the food, the way here.
3 miles there and back
Left out of the gate and along the cliff tops the whole way, past the old watch hut on Porthgale Head. Seals in the water below more often than not. No road, no stiles, one honest climb.
40 minutes each way
Right out of the gate, down through the valley with the stream. Sand at low tide, a swim if you're brave, and the fish shack on the quay in summer. Steep on the way back, worth it.
An easy hour
Inland past Trevean Farm, where our eggs come from, and back down the lane. Muddy after rain. Boots by the porch, help yourself, put them back roughly clean.



In the village and nearby
Two minutes down the lane, and it's a good one: fish from the day boats, a fire in winter, dogs everywhere. Book for Sunday lunch, walk in the rest of the week.
Does the pasties people drive here for, and it sells out most summer days. If you want one for the path, say so at breakfast and we'll put a pair aside.

Down at the quay and ten minutes away
Opens in the warm months: crab rolls, mackerel off the grill, cash and card. Eat on the harbour wall like everyone else.
Ten minutes by car, three restaurants we'd happily stand behind. Ask us and we'll book whichever suits the mood.

Follow the lane past the chapel and we're the last house before the path. Parking for three cars at the top of the garden, first come, and the lane is kinder than it looks.
Penzance is the end of the line, then it's 25 minutes to our gate. The bus runs in summer; a taxi is about £30. Tell us your train and we'll have the kettle ready.


Three rooms from £120, coast path at the gate, breakfast included every morning.
