If you’re looking for proper Cornish beach culture, then a Perranporth holiday cottage is the way to immerse yourself in it. Life in this beautiful coastal resort centres around its crowning glory: a stunning three mile-long curve of golden sand, complete with a rock-hewn tidal pool and on-the-beach eatery pulsing with live music. Firmly ensconced within Cornwall’s renowned north coast surf strip, the village is a surfer’s paradise, and has all the hire shops, surf schools and seasonal lifeguards to go with it. Despite buzzing with aquatic action, the huge expanse of beach also means peace and quiet – it almost feels as if you have the place to yourself.
Whether you want an action-packed family holiday on the beach or a relaxing time drinking in the scenery, a holiday cottage in Perranporth is the perfect base to explore the dramatic Poldarkian coastline, breathe exhilarating sea air – and perhaps sample some local ice cream, too.
