Welcome to Nanpean

Nanpean is a small village located in the heart of Cornwall, England. It is situated between the towns of St. Austell and Redruth and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village is known for its rich mining history, which dates back to the 18th century. The area was once home to several tin and copper mines, which were the main source of employment for the local population.

Today, Nanpean is a quiet and peaceful village with a strong sense of community. The village has a small primary school, a post office, a convenience store, and a pub. The local community center hosts a range of events and activities throughout the year, including a weekly farmers' market, a summer fete, and a Christmas fair. The village is also home to several sports clubs, including a football team and a cricket club.

Despite its small size, Nanpean has a lot to offer visitors. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling, and horse riding. The nearby Goss Moor National Nature Reserve is a popular destination for nature lovers, with its diverse range of habitats and wildlife. The village is also within easy reach of several popular tourist attractions, including the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan, and the historic town of Truro.

Local Dog Walks

Watergate Bay
Watergate Bay Is A Two-Mile Stretch Of Golden Sand On The North Cornish Coast, Two Miles From Newquay. A Favourite With Surfers And People Flying Kites (Which Drove My Dog Crazy - Big Multi-Coloured Birds In The Sky!) It Is Dog-Friendly All Year Round. Jame Oliver Has A Restaurant Overlooking The Beach (Probably Not Dog-Friendly, I Don't Know). But The Beach Hut, Which Is Adjacent To The Sand, Is Very Dog-Friendly And Serves Locally Caught Mussels And Very Fine Hamburgers. I Visited In April But I Imagine This Place Gets Mobbed In August.
