BEST Instagram Spots in Cornwall!

Cornwall's coastline is the most beautiful in the UK there is no denying that! There are so many notable landmarks, amazing beaches, and woodlands. If you are a nature lover, like me, then Cornwall is the place for you! Here are my 7 Most Instagrammable Locations in Cornwall...

PORTHCURNO AND PEDN VOUNDER - Porthcurno, TR19 6JX

I was in LOVE with this place when I went, the best thing is that the water is so tropical looking and there is NO seaweed which is great! Pedn Vounder is a little bit of a trek to get to, but is worth it, because most people don't both walking to get there and the water is calmer to swim in because it's a cove.

Ⓟ Charges Apply 1 April - 31 October

Up to 2 hours - £2.10
2 to 4 hours - £4.70
24 hours - £6.50

ⓦⒸ There are no toilets on the beach but there are some in the carpark.

TREVELGUE HEAD, PORTH - Newquay TR7 3NA

Being bored staying at home I wanted to go and watch the sunset and have a little BBQ so Tom and me went off to Newquay. We stopped off at Porth, but as the sea was coming in so quickly we pitched up on Trevelgue Head. There was some clay rock and a grassy area which was perfect to sit and have out BBQ! We watched the sunset right in front of our eyes and dip in the water.

Ⓟ Charges Apply 1 April - 31 October

Up to 1 hour - £1.50
1 to 2 hours - £3.10
2 to 3 hours - £4.60
3 to 4 hours - £6.20

(We parked up on a road somewhere, but there is a carpark however it is on the beach and doesn't look the best!)

IDLESS WOODS - Truro TR4 9QT

A great little place round the back of Truro, some beautiful tall trees and a great place to walk or cycle. There are big lanes and are easier to cycle on with thinner tyres! There are some lovely bluebells if you go around summertime and a cute little cabin cafe to have a cofee after you've finished your long trek.

Ⓟ PARKING FREE!!

ⓦⒸ There are no toilets in the woods but there is a cafe in the car park!

BEDRUTHAN STEPS - Bedruthan, PL27 7UW

Bedruthan Steps is a National Trust location, which means there is a car park, which you will have to pay for unless you have a membership with National Trust (I recommend you get), in that case it is free. This location is so breath-taking, however, the steps down to the beach were closed when we went, due to rocks falling down from the cliffs. I would recommend still going to visit as the scenery is worth it!

Up to 1 hour - £2.00
2 hours - £4.00
4 hours - £6.00
24 hours - £8.00

ⓦⒸ There are toilets at the carpark.

CARDINHAM WOODS- Bodmin PL30 4AL

Want to get lost in the woods? There is so much to do at Cardinham woods, including: 4 walking trails and 3 cycling trails. They also have a barbecue and picnic area! Dogs are welcome, which is great if you love dogs. If you are planning on riding a bike, like I did, PLEASE prepare yourself it is very bumping and I had thin tyres so I feel off about 5 times!

ST MICHAEL'S MOUNT - Marazion TR17 0EQ

I woke up at 4am to get this shot! There are so many beautiful places to capture the sunrise in Cornwall, but if you want a location with the wow factor then there is no better background than St Michaels Mount.
