One of the best ways to enjoy Port Isaac is to take a stroll around the historic centre of the village, exploring the lanes and alleys around the harbour that give this place so much of its character and which haven’t changed much in over the last 200 years.

Here’s one of our favourite walking routes around the village that takes in a lot of the key sites and best views, starting and finishing from our booking office at the old Trelawney Garage at number 14, New Road.

"I tell everybody to walk: to just get out on the cliff path. It doesn’t matter how far you go. You can just go up Lobber, or carry on all the way to Port Quin. I always feel that with one shoulder to the land and one shoulder to the sea, it gives you such a sense of where you are in the world and being right on the edge of the cliff there. It’s a really good way to see the village and to put it all into perspective."

Our two most recent articles on our journal are an interview with local artist Katie Childs, and a guide to the gardens and coastal wildflowers of Port Isaac and the surrounding area. Head over to our website to check them out, and soak up some inspiration for your next visit:

“When I paint the rooftops of Port Isaac, I see a jigsaw of all of the people I know and their stories.”

Port Isaac artist Katie Childs’ work is synonymous with our village, her works adorn the walls or cover the windows of many cottages and properties, and you’ll find several on the walls of our booking office.
We crossed the road to Cliffside Gallery to take some photos of Katie as she works on a new set of originals to illustrate a friend’s upcoming children’s book, and to talk with her about her unique and studied view of our beautiful village.
