The Roundhouse, Porthcothan

Where Is It?

Porthcothan is one of Cornwall's secret bays, a deep inlet surrounded by rocky headlands with a big expanse of sand at low tide. This tiny coastal village has a lovely hidden quality; it has remained largely undeveloped and provides an 'away from it all' feel.

With just one pub and a small local shop, you'll find Porthcothan is quieter than many of the better-known beaches with a focus on playing on the sand and in the sea. This is the Cornish coast for purists, it's all about the gorgeous natural environment.

A short drive from Porthcothan takes you to Padstow, Watergate Bay or Newquay for shopping, family activities and all kinds of cafes, restaurants and pubs.
