Dog Friendly Information

Dog Friendly Dogs are only allowed on the beach from September to May. However, they are allowed on the woodland footpath all year road and can have a fantastic off lead romp amongst the trees and in the shallow stream.

“ We go in the winter with our dogs and enjoy the woodland walk. Steep in places and often muddy, take your wellies. ”

“ Guest book comment “Penbryn beach great beach. Good sand- plenty of space. Bit of a walk from the car park though. ”

Penbryn Beach - 1mile there and back

Penbryn is an unspoilt, rural, 1-mile-long sandy beach managed by the National Trust.

The pay and display car park, shop/café and toilets (open summer only) are about 500 metres from the beach along an access road.

The alternative scenic way to the beach is a path with steep steps in places through the woods above a tumbling stream.

From the car park the path leads down to a bridge over the stream and then back up the other side.

Turning right at the top the path leads you downstream. After a few yards you can turn left and detour up the St Michaels church. A little further you have the choice of going straight on, along the top of the valley and on to the coastal path above the beach, or taking the right fork downhill above the stream to the beach.

The coastal woodland, twisted and gnarled trees, ferns and "mother-in-law’s tongues” are magnificent.

At the bottom of the path crosses the stream on a wooden bridge and re-joins the road turning circle at the beach.

Enjoy the beach and return to the car either the same way or take the slightly easier option up the road.
