Tresilian Bay

Highlight • Historical Site

Tresilian Bay is renowned for its dramatic limestone cliffs, breathtaking views across the Bristol Channel, and a captivating white house nestled at the valley's edge, adding a touch of charm to the landscape.

The sheltered pebble beach, embraced by two majestic cliffs, unveils a slice of history with the presence of a WW2 pillbox.

Penryn Bay is a secluded cove located a stone's throw away from the magnificent St Donats Castle and Arts Centre on the Glamorgan Heritage Coast.

The bay features a huge slab of rock which makes a great place to sit and gaze across the beautiful Bristol Channel.
