Location

Cadgwith is everybody s idea of an archetypal fishing village with its tight cluster thatched cottages lining the sides of the valley and the small fleet of colourful fishing boats winched up on the shingle beach. The fact that the boats are still in use and the local pub The Cadgwith Cove Inn is renowned for its singing of Cornish songs of a Tuesday and Friday evening is testament to the traditional character of this village still being alive and well. The village also has a thriving gig club, a restaurant caf , The Crab Shack which offers a great selection of fresh fish and a small village shop.

The cove s orientation offers some protection from the prevailing south westerly winds that blow the strongest and has two small beaches, the fishing beach in front of the town where the slipway is right on the road, separating this from the adjacent swimming beach is a small rocky outcrop called the Todden. The large cliff to the south of the cove is known as the Man o War.
