Walks in Cornwall

There are so many walks in Cornwall to enjoy and Blue Monkey is perfect for those looking to experience a section of one of Britain’s loveliest National Trails: the “South West Coast Path”.

Our luxury holiday cottage is located on the coastal path from Kingsand and Cawsand; it is truly beautiful in all directions and a great reason to stay with us.

You can walk around the coastline past Penlee Point and Rame Head, with its 11th century monks’ chapel and superb views to the glorious 4 mile stretch of sand and surf at Whitsand Bay.

The Rame Peninsula also hosts part of the “Cornish Discovery Time Trail” including Mount Edgcumbe House.

Heading west will take you to Penlee Point, Rame Head and Whitsand Bay (a 4 mile walk) ending with refreshments at the View restaurant and panoramic views of Whitsand Bay.

You can return direct via downhill road to Cawsand (1 mile) or the coastal path. Buses (The pink link) also run from the View Restaurant.

Heading east will take you along the coastline to the grounds of Mount Edgcumbe House and its famous formal gardens (4 miles) with refreshments available at the Orangery or Edgcumbe Arms.

The stunning costal walk winds its way through the 800 acre Mount Edgcumbe Park. According to the Shell Guide it is one of the most beautiful parks in England. There is a bus service to bring you back to Cawsand from the Orangery.
