If you are looking to discover a little known corner of Cornwall at its best, look no further than Whitsand Bay. With over three miles of sand backed by majestic cliffs and tidal rock pools you are in for a treat. Visitors to the county will usually drive right past this area. Dogs are welcome all year round too.

With over three miles of sand, backed by majestic cliffs and tidal rock pools, you are in for a treat. Visitors to the county will usually drive right past this area, plus access to the beach is down a steep slope, so you can expect a much quieter bay. Dogs are welcome all year round too.

Great food and a lively atmosphere at the Halfway House Inn…live music on a Wednesday evening, traditional Cornish music when we were there.

The Halfway House in is in the centre of Cawsand/Kingsand which are actually two small towns combined into one. The old boundary between Cornwall and Devon used to run through here, before it was moved to the Tamar River, with Cawsand in Cornwall and Kingsand in Devon. Opposite the Halfway House Inn there is a marker on the wall of a house which has Corn on one side and Devon on the other, possibly the original boundary marker.
