Saint Agnes Cottages
Brimming with charm and character, Saint Agnes is a beautifully
unspoilt village on the north coast of
Cornwall. It's a wonderful place for a family
holiday and also a great touring base. Stay in summer for the
carnival or escape in winter for the Christmas Lights.
Make yourself at home in your St.Agnes cottage, then have a
wander around. Notice the friendly ambience - St. Agnes is a
thriving community and extremely welcoming. You'll find a good
choice of shops for all your holiday needs, plus a fabulous
collection of craft shops, galleries and workshops, where you can
pick up handmade gifts, jewellery, ceramics and other keepsakes.
(St. Agnes is part of the Arts & Crafts Trail.) Or take the
short drive to Blue Hills and treat yourself to some stylish
jewellery or tableware made from St. Agnes Tin.
Superb surfing and walking from your St. Agnes cottage!
St. Agnes boasts four beaches! Porthtowan is a fantastic surfing
beach and hosts annual contests - you can also book lessons and
hire equipment locally. Chapel Porth (NT) is next door, offering
soft, fine sands and wonderful cliff-top walks back into the
village. Along the coast is Trevellas Porth, a pebble beach
that's great for fishing and snorkelling. Last but not least,
Trevaunance Cove (or 'Aggie Beach') offers excellent family
facilities. As well as the spectacular coastal path, walkers can
follow designated National Trust trails and exciting
off-the-beaten-track routes deep into the countryside.
Round off your day laughing with locals in a traditional inn or
around the dining table of your St. Agnes
cottage!
