The Beaches of South Cornwall - S30 - Porthallow

OS Explorer Map 103 The LizardOS Explorer Map 103 The Lizard

This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.

Location: South Coast - 1˝ miles north of St. Keverne

Thatched cottage at Porthallow


Known locally as Pr'alla. Porthallow has a small little used beach with nearby refreshments available at the Five Pilchards Inn. The large car park is often almost empty and the village gives the air of 'somewhere where all the fishermen have gone - an echo of former times'. There are toilets and all the normal amenities nearby.
