Information about Polzeath

Polzeath is a small village that can be found on the North-coast of Cornwall. Polzeath's main attraction is the waves coming off the Atlantic coast which makes it the perfect place for surfing. If you are lucky, dolphins may sometimes be spotted and the surrounding coastline is a particularly good area for seeing many types of coastal birds including puffins and Peregrine falcons.

Polzeath has a number of local shops along with many restaurants, public houses and cafes. There are several literary associations with the town too, and in the first of Enid Blyton's Famous Five novels, the eponymous children express disappointment that their holiday will not, as usual, be spent at Polzeath.
