LOCAL ATTRACTIONS

Faraway Loft provides a perfect base for exploring the rugged far west of Cornwall; the Minack Theatre, St Ives and beautiful beaches such as Porthcurno are all just a short distance away. Poldark was filmed in various locations nearby, including Porthgwarra.

NEAREST PUB

The Logan Rock Inn (1 ¾ miles)

This welcoming, traditional pub takes its name from the nearby legendary rock that sits precariously perched up on the cliffs near Porthcurno. The pretty beer garden and marquee make it an attractive option after a day at one of the nearby beaches. Or warm up in the snug bar area after a wintry walk on the cliffs.

NEAREST BEACH

Nanjizal Beach (½ mile)

A good spot for seal-watching, this pretty boulder beach is only accessible from the South West Coast Path, from Land's End to the north or Porthgwarra to the south, so remains largely untouched and never gets busy.

NEAREST WALK

Porthgwarra to Porthcurno (1 mile)
​

A short walk but with a fabulous ending, the beach underneath the Minack Theatre is one of the best in Cornwall.

MINACK THEATRE

Minack Theatre (1 ½ miles)​

The Cornish theatre with real ‘wow’ factor is the Minack. Perched on the cliffs at Porthcurno, the Minack is an open-air theatre-in-the-round – and a triumph of vision over reality.

PORTHCURNO

Porthcurno Beach (1 ½ miles)

Get to the bottom of the hit-and-miss path to Porthcurno, and you’ll feel as though you’ve stumbled into the Mediterranean - steeply shelving powder-fine sand, an almost luminous blue sea and cliffs sheltering you from the sea breezes.

SENNEN

Sennen Cove (2 miles)
​

A wide crescent of white sand, Sennen is great for sandcastles and surfing and joins up with neighbouring Gwenver at low tide. Easy access and parking make Sennen a popular choice with families. All amenities are close by, including toilets, beach shops, cafes and a pub, plus the Beach Restaurant which has great sea views.
