Downderry is a beautiful village in Cornwall, boasting a sheltered, shingle beach overlooked by its own pub – aptly named ‘The Inn on the Shore’.

This coastal resort offers something for all beach lovers. Surfers will enjoy the reef break here, while the children will be happy exploring the rock pools that appear at low tide. Bass Rock, to the east of the beach is a popular spot for fishing, and there is a small slip road that provides access for launching boats, too. Book a holiday cottage in Downderry with a sea-view, and you can watch the beach comings and goings at your leisure.

There is plenty to explore nearby; a scenic railway offering beautiful views of the Looe valley, a monkey sanctuary, and for adrenalin junkies – the zip wire at ‘Adrenalin Quarry’.

Book your Downderry holiday cottage and experience this delightful part of Cornwall for yourself.
