About

Tywardreath sits on a plateau overlooking St Austell Bay, its name meaning 'house on the beach' in Cornish. The village is a functional hub with a primary school, shops, and a historic pub, the New Inn. It serves as a residential centre for the surrounding coastal parishes. The area is defined by the wooded valleys leading down to the water, including the ancient track of Tregaminion Chapel Path.

Nearby, the historic port town of Fowey is tightly packed on the steep west bank of the River Fowey estuary. Its deep-water harbour remains a working port for cargo ships and is a focus for sailing. The town's narrow, winding streets lead down to the quay, connected to Polruan on the opposite bank by a vehicular ferry. The surrounding creeks and inlets create a complex, sheltered coastline.
