LOCATION

Crantock is one of the county’s most sought after north coast villages being both ‘picture postcard’ pretty but also protected from the weather by the sand dunes at the back of the long sandy Crantock beach with the Gannel Estuary flowing down one side. There are very few estuaries on the north coast and so its rare sheltered sand based waters are revered for bathing and perfect for children to play away from the excellent surfing along the rest of the beach. There are walks throughout the sand dunes and then around the mostly National Trust owned coastline to other beaches at Porth Joke and Holywell. There are also walks up the Gannel Estuary at lower states of the tide where it is possible to cross over to Pentire and Newquay, with a summertime ferry also making the short journey.

In Crantock village is a tea rooms and restaurant, an inn and a general store. There are further services nearby at where there is also an excellent countryside inn and primary school. The nearby resort town of Newquay offers a full range of shops and services including out of town retail areas, many bars, restaurants and cafés as well as a sports centre, a branch railway line and schooling. Under half an hour’s drive to the south is Cornwall’s capital city of where there are private schools and a comprehensive range of local and national retailers along with many clubs and societies. 4 Ref: LCAA7144
