We stumble upon this traditional Cornish fishing port by accident, originally we were going to go to the Lizard Point but I thought it might be a bit commercialised and saw this place on the map.
This place is very unspoilt it has a small fishing harbour where a few cobbles operate out of. Just above the harbour is the Paris Hotel named after the Paris liner that ran aground on the manacle rocks many years previous.
We stopped on a Saturday afternoon and they had stopped serving food (they started again at 6.30pm) but I had a beer and my long suffering Partner had a cup of Tea (her turn to drive) they had a good selection of beers and I had a look at the menu and the selection looked mouth watering.
If you just want to enjoy a drink the views are outstanding it was worth the visit just for them they also have accommodation which at the time of writing (Sept 2009) was only £30.00 per person per night inc. Breakfast which I thought was very reasonable, it will definitely be on my stop and stay overnight list next time we have a break down in Cornwall. read more
