Walk along the southern section of the Cornwall Coastal Path. Discover one of the most scenic stretches of the South West Coast Path as you walk from Penzance to Mevagissey, a route rich in natural beauty, cultural history, and coastal charm. This journey takes you through dramatic cliffs at The Lizard—Britain’s southernmost point—along wooded estuaries, sheltered tidal creeks, and the tranquil Fal River. The region is part of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, known for its lush gardens, palm-lined paths, and unique microclimate. Along the way, you’ll encounter tiny fishing villages, secret smugglers’ coves, and stories of shipwrecks that inspired authors like Daphne du Maurier and Virginia Woolf, and latterly Raynor Winn, author of The Salt Path. Whether you're admiring the birdlife, exploring subtropical gardens, or simply taking in a spectacular Cornish sunset, this moderate week-long walk offers a deeply memorable experience for both nature lovers and literary enthusiasts alike.
The walk was amazing, stunning views beautiful countryside.
Best way to see the south coast of England on foot!
Great trip! Gorgeous scenery! This walk was rated moderate but there are a lot of ups and downs. Definitely not flat. Our nightly lodgings were our favorite part. Great hosts and delicious breakfasts. They did a fantastic job in organizing our vacation!
This was a lovely trip hiking along the coast. Some days were long, but there was usually a nice beach cafe to stop for a break and lunch. All of the luggage transfers went off without a hitch.
We would have liked to have a little more time to spend on the places of interest that were mentioned in the program. As it was, we felt that we had to hurry a bit to get to the B&Bs in time for check-in. We did not realize how steep some of the stretches were, so we think that the walking perhaps took a little longer than we would have expected. Also, we would have preferred perhaps to have a "day off" in the middle of the week, in Falmouth or one of the other nice little places.
