About Polzeath and Port Isaac

Port Isaac and neighbouring Port Gaverne form a small part of the rugged North Cornwall coast. The area is surrounded by open countryside in an area designated as of outstanding natural beauty.

Port Isaac
Like many Cornish harbours has an historical connection with the mining industry and fishing. Fishing boats still operate from, the harbour, although tourism gathers a more important role each year.
The village is very old with little white painted cottages, steep hills and narrow roads. There are numerous small shops, restaurants, pubs and tea-rooms. Excellent walks along the cliffs.
It boasts only small sea front. Major beaches are not too far away, with both Polzeath and rock but a short drive.

Port Gaverne
A little coastal hamlet adjoining Port Isaac. Small beach at low tide with numerous rock pools for children to explore.
Good rock fishing from, the National Trust headland.

Polzeath & New Polzeath
This coastal resort has a wide open expanse of soft sand and is regarded by many as one of the best surfing beaches in Cornwall.
Like many North Cornwall resorts the area offers breathtaking walks along open cliff paths.
Local services are available in the small village.
Car parking/toilets on the beach, very popular in the summer months with families.


Summary: Good family resorts breath taking views! A good base for touring and walking and relaxing.
