Holiday Cottages in St Agnes, North Coast

St Agnes is a picturesque village on Cornwall's north coast, surrounded by dramatic cliffs, beautiful beaches and a landscape rich in mining history. With its traditional cottages, independent shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants, the village has a welcoming atmosphere and makes a lovely destination for exploring this spectacular stretch of coastline.

A short distance from the village centre, Trevaunance Cove is a sheltered-looking sandy beach backed by rugged cliffs and the remains of the area's former harbour. Popular with families, surfers and walkers, the cove is a focal point for visitors, while the surrounding coast offers spectacular views and fascinating reminders of St Agnes' maritime and mining past.

The village lies within the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site, with historic engine houses and former mine workings scattered across the surrounding countryside. Nearby Wheal Coates, overlooking Chapel Porth, is one of Cornwall's most photographed mining landmarks, while St Agnes Beacon offers far-reaching views across the coastline and inland countryside.

The South West Coast Path provides excellent walking opportunities, with routes towards Chapel Porth and Porthtowan in one direction and Perranporth in the other. The surrounding area is also home to the local legend of Giant Bolster, celebrated through a traditional community festival.
