Find someplace comfortable to sit, shut your eyes and simply enjoy the sound of the water lapping at the shore at Porthpean Beach. If you're eager for some sea and sun, this is the place to get your fill.

Located in Saint Austell Bay, this stretch of coastline is well worth a visit. But you'll find plenty more to see and do in this area. Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, and Charlestown Harbour aren't too far away from Porthpean Beach.

8.6/10 Excellent! (819 reviews)
The hotel looks lovely, but my room lacked the same character. It was also very cold in my room at night and I couldn’t sleep because of this. This was partly due to the window being left open before I arrived at 20:00 and the radiator not being on.
