POLPERRO CORNWALL is a village between Looe and Fowey that everyone should visit on their Cornwall holiday. Regarded as the most beautiful village in Cornwall it's very popular with holidaymakers and day trips and rightly so. Come with me as head through the village to the beach.
Polperro is a captivating fishing village nestled on Cornwall's south coast, renowned for its well-preserved charm and rich history. This delightful village boasts narrow streets, a picturesque harbour, and stunning coastal scenery. Here's why you should consider Polperro for your next Cornwall holiday:
Wander the narrow, winding streets lined with traditional Cornish cottages. The car-free environment allows you to truly immerse yourself in the village's timeless atmosphere. Many of the cottages house craft shops, galleries, and cafes, adding to the village's charm.
The heart of the village revolves around the picturesque Polperro Harbour. Take a leisurely stroll along the harbour front, admire the colorful fishing boats moored in the water, and breathe in the fresh sea air. You might even spot some seabirds diving for fish or playful seals basking on the rocks.
Delve into Polperro's fascinating past at the Polperro Heritage Museum of Fishing and Smuggling. The museum explores the village's fishing industry and its involvement in smuggling activities over the centuries. Interactive exhibits and historical artifacts bring the stories to life.
While Polperro Harbour Beach is small and secluded, it offers a charming spot to relax and soak up the sunshine. The sheltered cove is perfect for paddling or rock pooling, especially for families with young children.
While Polperro itself might be compact, the surrounding area offers a wealth of things to see and do:
