Sandymouth

Sandymouth sits along a stretch of coast between Bude and Morwenstow, one of Cornwall's wild and dramatic corners with a character all of its own.
With a dramatic backdrop of sheer cliffs dating back millions of years, and a pebble ridge at the top of the beach with sand exposed as the tide recedes, Sandymouth is popular amongst surfers and rock-poolers alike.
Whether you're looking for a short stroll or a more challenging walk there are many exhilarating coastal walks to enjoy. The South West Coast Path offers walkers cliff top views stretching for miles, past Bude and beyond Tintagel.
Learn more about the intriguing history of the Grenville family, owners of a fine mansion that stood for 60 years at Stowe Barton, just a few miles from Sandymouth.
You’ll find coastal grasslands, as well as flowers such as thrift and sea campion. There are rock pools aplenty along this stretch of coast with colourful creatures to spot, and not forgetting the chance of catching sight of a dolphin or basking shark out to sea, or a peregrine falcon or buzzard overhead.
