Crackington Haven - is an unspoilt and un-commercialised area, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The coastal footpath between Widemouth Bay and Boscastle is one of the most spectacular stretches in Cornwall.
Leading out to the coast are deep, wooded valleys, most of which are accessible by public footpaths. At Widemouth Bay there is a splendid expanse of sandy beach; Millook has a quiet stretch of rock-bound pebbled shore abounding with prawning pools and lobster hides; and the beach at Crackington Haven is of sand, pebbles and rock pools, with dramatic National Trust coastline to the north and south.
The quaint village of Boscastle with its natural harbour, and Tintagel with its castle and legends of King Arthur, are a short drive away down the coast. Nearby are facilities for pony trekking, angling, surfing, wind surfing, golf and, of course, walking along the lanes and sheltered, leafy valleys and on the coastal footpath.
Nearby pubs serve dinner, basket meals and cream teas. There are tennis courts at Crackington Haven, and a newly-built local cinema within a few miles.
Crackington Haven lies on the dramatic and spectacular stretch of coast between Bude and Boscastle, an area designated as of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and within the Heritage Coastal Belt. Crackington Haven has a sandy bathing and surfing beach, with rock pools, where mussels, limpet and cowrie shells may be discovered and prawns hide in the seaweed fringes.
