Caerhays Beach
50° 14' 8” N 4° 50' 30" WCaerhays is a peaceful and secluded beach on the south coast.
The cove is overlooked by the Caerhays Estate; a magnificent 200 year-old castle set in 120 acres of woodland hosting fantastic gardens that are open to the public from mid February to late June. The drive down to the beach is a narrow and windy one, so slow speeds are advised.
There is a seasonal café which provides delicious refreshments and a carpark, and public toilets are set back just moments from the beach. Caerhays is also dog friendly.
