Coves 'N' Caves


OK, enough frivolity (although I do enjoy a good frivol every now and then!).

The walk to Gurnard's Head is pretty straight forward taking you over the top of Pendour and Porthglaze Coves so just enjoy the scenery as you go.

Right, you'll have to bear with us at this point. Basically the coast path goes past, rather than to, Gurnard's Head and the Gurnard's Head Inn. Pay close attention.
