Sandy Toes, Porthtowan

WHERE IS IT?

Sandy Toes is part of The Beach, a contemporary development perched high on the cliffs overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Porthtowan beach. Guests can enjoy the private footpath that leads directly onto the golden sand below.

Porthtowan sits at the foot of high cliffs on north Cornwall's rugged coast. The village has a lovely relaxed, off-the-beaten-path feel, with a very pretty sandy beach backed by cliffs. There's a handful of cafes, pubs and restaurants, plus surf hire and lessons and great walks to neighbouring beaches along the coast path to keep you busy.

The beautiful St Agnes is accessible by foot on the South West Coast Path or a short drive away. Here you will also find plenty of places to eat out and enjoy an evening tipple on the beach.
