About a holiday in Polperro...
In Polperro it’s easy to step back in time in this unspoilt fishing village on the south coast of Cornwall. Its beautiful cottages cling to steep hillsides around a small harbour with spectacular views of land and sea making it an artist’s paradise.
The road into the village snakes down the steep-sided coombe, mainly free of traffic, meaning you can enjoy wandering through the streets browsing the shops that major in locally made handicrafts and confectionery. There's also plenty of places to eat and drink from award-winning restaurants to traditional pubs.
Get the camera ready for when you reach the picturesque harbour, especially if the tides is in, and make a point of visiting the Smuggling Museum where you will find out all about the village’s sea based trials and tribulations.
Dotted around the village there are several galleries, carrying on the tradition of artists who have fallen in love with the views over the years. We think you'll do the same and just to make sure we recommend walking up the coastal path either side of the harbour to capture the view looking back over the village, we promise you won’t regret it.
The South West Coast Path passes through Polperro and offers spectacular views and access to beautiful beaches both to the east and the west. Heading east towards Looe you reach Talland Bay after about a mile. Here there’s a choice of beaches and some wonderful rockpools to discover when the tide is out. Continuing onto Looe you will pass other quieter coves, even in the summer months.
The coastal path heading west can be challenging to even the competent walkers. It’s very up and down with lots of steps. Walkers who make the effort are rewarded with wonderful views and hidden smugglers coves at Lansallos and Lantivet Bay.
For those not wishing to explore far, Polperro has its own small sandy beach located just outside the main harbour. The beach is in front of Willy Wilcox’s cave, believed to have been used by smugglers. There’s also a man-made tidal pool on the seaward of Chapel Cliff, to the right of the harbour mouth. Here many a local has first learnt to swim, away from the waves of the ocean.
