Sightseeing
You will find here a brief description of places really close to Polzeath
The historic church and cluster of ancient houses around it is a charming place. The church’s tilted spire is still a useful landmark for fishermen returning home. You can go for a walk starting from the path opening up at the bottom of the cul-de-sac below the old houses.
The Fourways Inn’s mural painting was created in 2018 for the centenary of the end of the first world war. It is also perfect for a spot of lunch.

Porthilly & Rock:
Driving from St Minver to Rock, take the lane along the mural and continue. You will pass a lovely cluster of old houses and come up at the Pityme Inn. Continuing towards Rock beach, Porthilly can reached by turning left into a single track road, roughly at the height of the Rock Institute.
In Porthilly, turn right into the farm and right again into the grass car park. Now walk to the lych gate to reach St Michael’s church. This charming church, literally by the water (walk around it), boasts a clear engraved window by the famous artist David Peace. There is an Art Gallery nearby. From there, you can drive all the way to the end and enjoy the beach end of Rock.
If you are into small planes, then, returning from Rock, drive almost back to the Pityme Inn and turn left where they indicate St Moritz and The Point. Immediately after the houses you will find on your right an indication to The Point. Turn onto the track through fields, grass airstrip, golf course, and arrive at tarmac road. Here, left for The Point at Polzeath or right to return to Polzeath village.

If you plan to go to Port Isaac or St Endellion, stop first at the Porteath Bea Centre for local honey.
Then on to Port Quin by taking the left-hand turn shortly after the Bea Centre. This is a real gem.
From there you can make your way on to St Endellion or Port Isaac by using the country lanes.

Park either at Trevathan Farm just beyond or turn left immediately after the church and left again into its car park.
St Endellion is very well known for its arts and books festivals. Check the St Endellienta website for current information.
This, is also a historic building well worth the visit. You are likely to find an exhibition running in their Hall.
Trevathan Strawberry Farm, shop & restaurant:
If you are here in the strawberry season, make sure to have some! You will find this place very useful in all sorts of ways.
From Trevathan Farm, you can go to Port Isaac or to St Kew.

The church car park is available if you do not plan to stop at the pub.
St Kew is a lovely village with old cottages, a 15th Century inn and a historic church. You will find a stained glass window showing the saint, with a bear standing beside her as her symbol. She was, it seems, an energetic lady who decided to make things happen and founded a little community on the site.
If you are searching for the two war graves in the yard behind the church, you will find a way in there.

This is a lovely village with a pub if you wish to spend some time there. Driving the roads to and from there could be a little adventure!

If you are here in high season, make sure to park at the top car park on your right. Then walk down the hill and spend the whole day there to make the most of it. The place is probably best know for its Doc Martin Trail but make sure to walk around the village, as you will discover pathways and cottages everywhere.
Did you know the narrowest street of the land is here?! To spot it, walk to the upper corner of the Golden Lion, with the long street coming down behind you. As you look ahead, you should see a tiny gap between two houses at the end of the pedestrian street: That is is! Try it! Great fun!
If you are a fan of the Fisherman’s Friends, make sure to stop at the magnificent Port Isaac Pottery/Gallery/Shop/Café owned by a Fisherman’s Friend and his artist wife who paints the pots as well as on canvas. One daughter takes care of clothes and jewellery, the other is also a potter/painter, the son-in-law a photographer and local RNLI rescuer. Also drop into the shop below the Old School Hotel owned by another Fisherman’s Friend and his wife a local artist.
Find out about the Fish Cellars by also walking along the water edge on the right-hand side of the Golden Lion.
As you return to the car park, break up the upward walk, especially if it is too wet or too hot! The trick is to walk up to the Old School and turn right for a stop in the church up steps just up that lane on your left. Aside from giving you a break, you will see the History of Port Isaac Exhibition organised by the local historical society. It is small and interesting. The place is delightfully cool in Summer!

Walking from Polzeath towards Rock:
Leaving Polzeath, take the Greenaway. You can go down to the Greenaway beach below or keep going until you reach Daymer Bay. You have two choices here.
The first is to cross the car park and, at the bottom of the lane, turn right at the St Enodoc sign. Crossing the golf course, you will arrive at St Enodoc church, a favourite place for Poet Laureate John Betjeman who lived in Trebetherick. You will find his grave in the churchyard. This church was buried in the sand for many years and the local vicar had to be lowered down into the church once a year to hold a worship service there so that it could remain a living church. Today, it is freed up from the sand and open every day.
Standing in the grounds of St Enodoc Golf Course, there is also an ancient unusual holy well called Jesus Well. It stands in a Medieval well house, probably rebuilt during the 19th century and restored in the 20th century. It is enclosed by a stone wall. When antiquarian Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch visited, he noted that the well was "half buried with drifting sea sand". He also noted the tradition of leaving coins at the well. This tradition had almost entirely died out at other holy wells. According to legend, Jesus Christ himself visited the well with his uncle Joseph of Arimathea on their visit to Cornwall, which is why it is called the Jesus Well. Its exact coordinates are to be found at https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1124712.
From Daymer Bay, your second choice is to continue to Rock. You can do so by staying on the beach at low tide or making your way along the tumulus at other times. Once in Rock, you can enjoy a quick break there before taking the ferry to Padstow.
In Padstow, make sure to visit the National Lobster Hatchery. It is an amazing place!

Padstow is an amazing little fishing town bustling with tourist activity but also with fishing produce according to the tides.
You can drive there and park above or walk to Rock and take the passenger ferry.
Slightly out of the way on the Quayside beyond the car park, you will find the National Lobster Hatchery. This is all about terrific re-stocking and conservation of the lobster population. A visit not to be missed.
You will find some information under "Food Scene" for your needs.

Polzeath is a beautiful place, a village wrapped around its beach with views of Pentire Head and Stepper Point. It is a wonderful retreat for a couple who wish to have some time away from the rush. It is even more stunning when you have the whole beach to yourselves. Sunsets over the sea are out of this world.
The village consists of the Highcliffe, the river valley, the Trenant hill & valley, and the New Polzeath cliff. In the midst of all those houses and the many activities one can enjoy in Polzeath, there are hidden paths that one can only access through walking along gardens and entering sheltered gates. This is a paradise for walkers as well as surfers!
Discover the 15th century Shilla Mill, the woods nearby, or the path to the Point building, or make your way through wood and fields to Highcliffe.
Going another way, you can discover the National Trust Pentire Farm, or the cross-fields walk to Lundy Bay or back down to Baby Bay. After making your way to Pentire Head, continue and discover where Laurence Binyon’s Ode for the Fallen was written, while enjoying the view of the Rumps (they look like a dinosaur asleep on the water). As you continue walking, you might catch a glimpse of seals below as you make your way to tiny Lundy Bay. Walking back from Lundy Bay across the fields, you can make you way back to the end of the close and the house a few yards away. Otherwise, continue to beautiful Port Quin.
If you are looking for all things sea-worthy, head to the Marine Centre. It looks like a painted shed but there is a lot of good work coming out of there. Just walk in and meet those knowledgeable people who freely give their time to the care of beach, sea and the creatures living in them. If you are looking for good dining or a spot of quality shopping, just head down to the Parade of shops. Take-aways are great too. See phone numbers below for quick enquiries and bookings.
