Escape the hustle and bustle of fast-paced life and book a stay
in a Polperro holiday cottage, dotted in and around this gorgeous
little fishing village on the South
Cornish coast.
Fishermen's cottages line the tiny streets in a charming
fashion. Thankfully vehicles are banned, so you can wander freely
and browse the quirky shops and galleries in relative peace and
quiet. Polperro was once notorious for smugglers and you can trace
the routes of wagons laden with brandy and tobacco, pushed through
town at the dead of night. Find out more about Polperro's
fascinating history at the local Heritage Centre.

Coastal footpaths weave along the Heritage Coast and from the
village you can head east to Talland Bay or west to Lansallos, two
lovely beaches with small churches. From Talland Bay, continue on
to the coastal town of Looe (5
miles in total) and either walk back or hop on a bus. Whichever way
you go, the views are amazing, sweeping across plunging cliffs and
out to sea. You can also choose to soak up the scenery from
offshore and enjoy a boat or fishing trip from Polperro Harbour.
Polperro is famous for its seafood and you'll find an array of
attractive cafés, restaurants and old sea shanty inns, some
with magical waterfront views. Otherwise grab a crab sandwich or a
carryout of fish and chips and savour it from the comfort of your
Polperro holiday cottage. If your Polperro cottage holiday happens
to take place during the summertime, you can enjoy quayside
entertainment every Wednesday evening, courtesy of the Polperro
Fishermen's Choir.
