The second most southerly cafe in Cornwall, right by the sea. Lovely locally themed wooden art work in the cafe which I believe they make themselves. Evening bookings are sometimes available when in demand, so it's worth phoning up to ask. They do a fantastic full english, and do high teas for two, which can be upgraded to come with prosecco or a cocktail!

Highly recommend booking in for an evening beach hack, I'd personally go for Polurrian Cove over Poldhu Beach this as its generally quieter down there, and unlike Poldhu its not a beach that can be accessed by car. Theres lots of other areas they can take you out riding - like Penrose Estate & Loe Bar, Kynance, Goonhilly, and Church Cove just to name a few of the lovely routes we have around.
