About Porthmeor
Porthmeor surveys the restless Atlantic from its Cornish perch. It lies 7.9 km north-north-west of Penzance (from Penzance: bearing 328°T, OS grid SW 431 371), and is situated north-north-west of Madron village. Here, the air carries the sharp tang of salt and the cry of gulls, a constant reminder of the sea's dominion, while the granite cottages, weathered by wind and spray, huddle together against the elements. The rough track leading down to the cove, worn smooth by generations of feet and cartwheels, hints at a history of hardy fishermen and resourceful folk who have long drawn their livelihood from the ocean's bounty. The raw beauty of the coastline, with its dramatic cliffs and the ceaseless murmur of waves against rock, offers a profound sense of elemental power, a stark contrast to the quietude that can settle over Porthmeor when the tide recedes.
