Portwrinkle is a tiny seaside village on the south east coast of Cornwall, situated slightly east of Downderry and Looe. Lesser known that its neighbours, holidays in Portwrinkle offer you the traditional seaside getaway but without the summer crowds. Traditionally a fishing village, Portwrinkle has a cutte little harbour, and you can still see the remains of 17th centrury pilchard cellars, although they have now been incorporated into local housing. Smuggling was popular along this stretch of coastline, and the old coastguard boathouse and traditional cottages can still be seen.
The village enjoys spectacular views along Whitsand Bay, and benefits from two main beaches, plus a few more smaller beaches nearby. The largest, sandy beach, Finnygook, is very popular with experienced surfers, and also with families. At low tide plenty of rock pools are revealed, perfect for delving into and discovering an array of fascinating sea life. There is also the fabulous Gook Beach Café, serving a delicious selection of hot and cold food to eat in, dine alfresco, or take away. Finnygook beach is dog-friendly throughout the year, so there's no need for anyone to miss out on the fun.
The nearest shop to Portwrinkle is the Crafthole village Post Office and community store, just half a mile away, where you will also find the excellent Finnygook Inn. For dinner with a difference, make sure to book a table at The View seafood retaurants, perched high on the cliffs about Whitsand Bay. What could be better than indulging in only the freshest seafood (the menu changes daily depending on the catch of the day) whilst taking in spectacular panoramic sea views? Within a few minutes' drive, you will find everything you need in the way of shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants in the neighbouring fishing villages of Looe and Polperro.
Away from the sea, there's plenty to see and do. Head to the pretty village of St Germans and stroll around Port Eliot House and its beautiful riverside gardens, before stopping off for some cold Cornish cider at the Eliot Arms pub. Mount Edgecumbe House and Country Park is a wonderful place to visit, and families will love hiring segways to explore the grounds. From here, you can catch the Cremyll Ferry across to Plymouth with its many shops, restaurants and attractions. Back in Cornwall, for fun and educational, all-weather family days out, both the Monkey Sanctuary near Looe, and the famous Eden Project are well worth a visit. Keen golfers can enjoy a round at Whitsand Bay Golf Club, just a five minute walk away from your front door.
A holiday in Portwrinkle offers a fantastic seaside retreat right next to the beach, with everything else you need to make your holiday memorable within a very short drive.
Parking space beside the front entrance, plus another one opposite the entrance.
