St Merryn

St Merryn is a village on Cornwall’s north coast just inland from Padstow, and its parish takes in a run of some of the best beaches in the area, including Harlyn Bay, Constantine Bay and Booby’s Bay. The village itself is quiet and rural, with easy access to the coast path, golf at Trevose, and Padstow’s harbour and restaurants a few minutes away.
