Mousehole Village and Harbour

Highlight • Settlement

The fishing village of Mousehole has narrow, bustling streets filled with small shops, galleries, restaurants, and cottages built from finely grained Lamorna granite. Dylan Thomas described the village as the loveliest in England — but many Cornish people would dispute that this part of the world can even be classed as England! The village has a thriving art scene as artists come to work amid the picturesque landscape.

Kemyel Crease Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Kemyel Crease Nature Reserve is a small, sheltered woodland that slopes down into the sea. Monterey pines and Monterey cypress grow in the woodland, and the reserve is rich in fungi, including the magnificent earth star fungus.

Lamorna Cove

Highlight • Beach

Lamorna is about half way between Porthcurno and Penzance so is a good place to stop for lunch. There is a cafe with a good range of food and plenty of outdoor seating. We couldn’t spot any toilets at Lamorna though so just bear that in mind.

Celtic Cross at Lamorna Cove

Highlight • Monument

This cross, made of durable granite, stands alone on the cliffs and has withstood wind and weather for a century and a half. The design of this memorial cross, with a large circle that encloses the intersection of the longitudinal and transverse beams, is typical of the tradition of such small sacred monuments, which is influenced by Celtic culture.

Lamorna Wink Pub is (according to its own description and that of some travel guides) a former smugglers' meeting place.
This is where the smugglers gave each other tips (= winks).
