What is going on in and around Mawgan Porth?

Mawgan Porth is an attractive coastal village some 8 miles south of Padstow where the cliffs sweep down to a horseshoe-shaped bay with fine golden sands. At the mouth of the bay and backing in to the Vale of Lanherne, stands the Merrymore Inn, just a fifty yard level walk from the sea.

Horseshoe shaped bay of Mawgan Porth

The large expanse of pale golden sand framed by cliffs and sand dunes offers both space and seclusion. The hamlet of Mawgan Porth is situated in a lush green valley, where the discerning walker can go inland here, picking up the Vale of Lanherne trail leading to the pretty village of St. Mawgan and on through Carnanton Woods to the historic market town of St. Columb. (See section on walking). Toilets and refreshments are available and dogs permitted.
