A pleasant
and traditional village, tucked away in a somewhat bypassed position,
being almost a one street village, on the coastal road between
the magnificent sandy beaches at Whitsand Bay (2 miles away) and Looe which
is about 5 miles further down the coast. A tiny village but with
a few cafes and restaurants and a couple of pubs. In particular
the Inn On The Shore is an idyllic setting to savour a drink or food,
with outdoor seating overlooking the sandy beach. Adults can watch
the children on the beach whilst enjoying a drink and some peace and quiet
from the seating area! Joined to Downderry is seaton village, next
along the coastal road, also having a beach (not so nice as Downderry beach)
and somewhere to eat.
