A Walk to Pentewan Village, Beach and Harbour

It was a sunshine day so we decided on a walk to Pentewan along the Pentewan Trail starting from the bridge as shown above.


Everywhere looked so fresh and green and welcoming - thanks  to all of the recent rain. There is a footpath which, for a while, follows the White River

We passed a colourful sign informing walkers the direction to Mevagissey and Heligan Gardens. We continued towards Pentewan. 


Now it's into the woods up a bit of a slope.


The woods looked very pleasant and there was no one else in sight.


At the edge of the woods the ground and bushes had become a little soggy.


More greenery ...


... and a few lillies, unfortunately not at their best.

Now we have reached the village of Pentewan and a row of  colourful old cottages


Just a little further along the road is the Ship Inn pub


Moving on a visit to Pentewan's land locked harbour.


Below a look- out almost lost in the greenery.


A view next of  the land locked harbour.



Now we have reached the beach at Pentewan and there is no one else in view, despite the blue sky and lots of sand to be seen.


Now back at the harbour again.


At the far end of the Pentewan village there is quite a steep hill.

Finallly, below, the other end of the village and the Piskey Cove.


Thanks for visiting my blog, good wishes ~ Mike

  1. This is a lovely walk Mike and yes, the countryside seems very lush and green this Spring after the rain. Pentewan looks a nice place and I noticed very clean too. I didn't noticed any litter

  2. It's good to get out and about - weather permitting. I think we have a mixed forecast for the week ahead, but it's a blue sky at the moment. Hope you and Popcorn have some interesting walks.

  3. I think the Cornwall Tourist Bureau should have you on their books Mike, as I almost want to get on a plane from Australia and do some of these walks for myself ... almost ;-)

    1. Thanks Darren - quite a lot of distance, though, from Australia. Take care.
