Local places of interest
It is not necessary to travel too far to find beautiful sandy beaches, stunning scenic walks, grand stately homes and welcoming country pubs offering traditional fare.
By following the B3247 coast road and travelling 20 miles between Cremyll in the East and Looe in the West you can find all of the above and more.
Starting from the east at Cremyll on the Rame Peninsular visit ‘Mount Edgcumbe stately home and gardens or take refreshments at the ‘Edgcumbe Arms’ whilst watching the coming and going of the river traffic on the Hamoeze or jump on the passenger ferry over to Plymouth and a ten to fifteen minute walk will take you to Plymouth Hoe.
Heading back along the coast, the twin villages of Kingsand and Cawsand can be found; from Cawsand the coastal path to Rame Head provides breath taking scenery. The coastguard lookout at Rame Head is manned by volunteers who positively welcome visitors.
Travelling west from the Rame Peninsular you will find Whitsand Bay, a beautiful golden sandy beach stretching for several miles. There are several points of access to the beach and its well worth the climb.
Next comes the village of Crafthole, then turn left immediately after Crafthole and explore the tiny hamlet of Portwrinkle.
Further west after Crafthole will be in familiar territory as you drive through Downderry. Carry on through to its twin village of Seaton. From here you can take the coast path to Looe, walk through the woodland valley to Hessenford where you will find 'The Copley Arms', a traditional Cornish pub or stay and enjoy Seaton with its beach café, Smugglers Inn and Waves restaurant.
The road out of Seaton takes you up Seaton valley to Hessenford and onto Looe. Looe is divided by the river, the main town of Looe can be found on the east side of the river and ample parking can be found over the bridge in West Looe in Mill Pool car park which is on the right hand side after you have crossed the bridge.
If you prefer to take a walk then one of the most beautifully scenic walks in the area starts from West Looe. Turn left after the bridge and park at Hannafore. From here you can take the coast path to the historic fishing village of Polperro or if you prefer a shorter walk why not stop half way at Talland Bay and take refreshment at the café.
