Situated in the heart of Cornwall, Porthcurno has been a go-to seaside destination for Brits for many years and has even won awards for its beautiful sandy beaches.<\/p>\n
The hotspot features everything Brits want from a seaside holiday, littered with quaint little cafes, beautiful golden beaches and endless scenic walks to soak up the southwest of England in all of its glory.<\/p>\n
Porthcurno Beach steals the crown for a must-see part of the village, but there is also Pedn Vounder Beach just a short stroll away. As well as this, the Logon Rock sits across the bay.<\/p>\n
The 65-tonne naturally balancing rock is roughly 30 metres above sea level, and was known at one time for swaying just by being pushed by daring visitors.<\/p>\n
Punters will also have to make sure to visit the Minack Theatre, which sits 150 feet up a cliff edge. The open-air theatre was built in the style of classical Greek theatre. It was opened by Rowena Cade, a wealthy daughter of a textile tycoon, and opened with a performance of The Tempest in 1932, which was the first in a series of successful summer seasons.<\/p>\n

Beautiful beach. Surrounded by cliffs so no wind and warm. Gold sand. Amazing spot to see. Parking is available a few minutes away from the beach.<\/p>\n Another said: \u201cWhat a stunning, stunning little beach! Porthcurno Beach is directly beneath the famous Minack outdoor theatre. From there it’s beautiful enough. But when you go down onto the beach it takes your breath away.\u201d<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

More info<\/p>\n Conveniently placed above its renowned beach, the Minack Theatre boasts unparalleled views of the ocean and runs tours for visitors to learn all about its history, as it was formerly used to put on exciting shows for locals.<\/p>\n Reviewing the Minack Theatre, one visitor said on TripAdvisor: \u201cThere is a good exhibition about the history of this place, but the main reason to visit this place is the great view over the ocean. I think that you can’t find a better observation point in the UK.<\/p>\n Another said: \u201cIt was a rainy day however there was a storyteller in the open-air theatre recounting how the Minack was built – he was mesmerising! We sat and listened to the incredible story in the rain – glued to his amazing performance.<\/p>\n \u201cA real treat. The theatre is stunning, the gardens are beautiful, and the views are breathtaking. The detail at every turn, with seats tucked away in every corner is amazing. There is a small cafe selling hot\/cold drinks, pasties and sandwiches – delicious and reasonably priced.\u201d<\/p>\n The Logan Rock Inn, a historic eatery situated in the nearby Treen area is well-liked by locals and visitors alike.<\/p>\n A customer who enjoyed the Logan Rock Inn said: \u201cWe hiked down from our apartment in Porthcurno and was greeted by a nice patio area that had a table and umbrellas. Inside the bar has a nice selection of drinks and plenty of local beers to choose from.<\/p>\n \u201cService was decent and we decided to have lunch out on the front patio. There\u2019s also a back garden area and of course tables inside the pub.<\/p>\n \u201cFood was served nice and quickly. We had a large bowl of muscles, prawn and crab cocktail and the steak pie with chips. No complaints whatsoever. Everything was lovely and served up with a smile.\u201d<\/p>\n The beautiful village even champions an interesting history, as over a century ago it became the receipent of the first international telegraph cable, which connected Britain to India and other parts of the British Empire soon after.<\/p>\n Source: Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/25\/590x\/secondary\/4935849.jpg?r=1693571553718\")
