It contains about 5 million litres of sea water and no mechanical filtration and minimal chemical treatment making it a natural sea water bathing experience.

Visiting the geothermal pool is a wonderful experience and far warmer than imagined. It was worth the chill of changing and dressing.

Porthcurno Beach
(4 miles)
(2)
Porthcurno is located in the far West of Cornwall and has been described by many as a paradise and it’s not hard to see why. With its soft white sand beaches, turquoise sea which gleams in the summer sun and the high cliffs on either side of the beach providing shelter, it is described as an oasis of stunning natural beauty. On the west side of the beach is the famous Minack Theatre and to either side of the beach you will find coastal paths that provide the most breath-taking views. Dogs are welcome on the beach expect between 1 May and 30 September when a seasonal dog ban is in place. Parking can be found just behind the beach.
What a lovely beach. Golden/white sands. Beautiful clear waters. On a calm day great for paddle boarding, swimming and paddling. The beach does drop away quickly and gets deep. We have been when it is wavy too but feels safe with the lifeguards there during high season. Parking can get very busy so I suggest you get there early in the day if you want a space closer to the beach, there are some disabled bays. The spaces are small and if you have a big car I suggest you reverse in so it is easier to get out at the end of a busy day on the beach. There are 3 routes down to the beach. From the Minack which is steep and rocky with lovely views. A path from the car park which is a little uneven and down a slope. My mother managed to get her mobility scooter down this and the lovely Lifeguards let her leave it at the Lifeguard station. There are also some steps down to the beach at the Lifeguards hut.

Marked Good for equipment due to TV etc. We certainly enjoyed our stay, and it was our 4th visit to Nantewas. The Cottage is always clean and the welcome gifts are a nice touch. We will possibly be back again next year. The cottage is also great value too !. Please pass on our thanks to all who make our holiday so enjoyable !!.
September 2023
This is the second year we have stayed here and we will come again and would recommend this studio to anyone. We came in a short heat wave and the studio being sheltered by trees was very cool and relaxing so we had no problems sleeping. We like the cottage very much it has everything we require in a beautiful quite valley . We walked to Lamorna cove every day for a swim and walks. we drove to other beaches and Penzance, Minack theatre and Mousehole, this studio is perfect for this area of Cornwall it has even got a nice pub across the road, also a takeaway Thai food van near by on the road to Lands End.
August 2023
A lovely part of Cornwall plenty of places to visit. The Studio was exactly as it said it would be. Great directions, found it straight away!
August 2022
The Studio was fantastic and we would recommend it and hopefully come and stay another time. The location is fantastic as the beach was 10 minutes walk away and we went every morning for an early swim.

September 2020
We found Nantewas Studio to be the perfect place to stay to enjoy the area, We have been coming to Cornwall for 30+ years and we found some fantastic places we had not previously visited. Zennor was really nice in particular. The whole area is simply beautiful and the sun sets on the west coast were amazing. I particularly liked the studio location in a beautiful wooded valley, and being Mid September the Trees were just starting to drop their leaves and aroma was simply fantastic. As a holiday this has been one of best ever in Cornwall. Our Rescue Jack Russell had a fabulous time walking all over the place, and he made it to the top of Cape Cornwall with ease !!. I would recommend this area of Cornwall to anyone who is looking for a Great holiday and is looking to see some amazing scenery !!. Lands, End, Sennen, Zennor, Porthgwarra, ( really nice walk up to the top to see the Look out post etc) Due to the Covid 19 we wanted a place that we would be safe in and it is so quiet in this area we felt totally safe. Thank-you for a Fantastic Holiday. Corncott Customer services are excellent too !!!. You will be hearing from us again soon !!
