Newtrain Bay near Trevone

Quite a narrow northwest facing beach with dark golden sand, Trevone is best known for its menacing Round Hole on its eastern flank. There are excellent cliff walks up to Porthmissen where geologists would find many structures to interest them. Lying about halfway between the busier Polzeath and headland of Trevose Head, Trevone is often overlooked by the casual visitor hurrying east towards Padstow or west towards Newquay. Well worth a visit as this small beach may well surprise you. There is a small car park and toilets are close by. A dog ban exists.
