Welcome to Trevose Head

Trevose Head is a stunning headland located on the north coast of Cornwall. It is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, offering breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and the rugged coastline. The headland is home to a lighthouse that has been guiding ships safely through the waters since the 19th century. The lighthouse is now fully automated, but visitors can still take a tour and learn about its fascinating history. Trevose Head is also a great spot for birdwatching, with a variety of seabirds and waders to be seen.

The headland is surrounded by beautiful beaches, including Constantine Bay, Booby's Bay, and Treyarnon Bay. These beaches are popular with surfers and swimmers, and are perfect for a day out with the family. The clear waters and golden sands make for a picturesque setting, and there are plenty of rock pools to explore at low tide. The coastal path runs along the top of the headland, offering stunning views of the beaches and the sea beyond.

Trevose Head is steeped in history, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Bronze Age. The headland was also the site of a battle between the Cornish and the Vikings in the 9th century. Today, visitors can explore the remains of an Iron Age fort and a medieval chapel, both of which are located on the headland. Trevose Head is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history, nature, or simply stunning scenery.

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.
