Set about halfway down Cornwall’s long Northern coast, between Newquay and St Agnes, Perranport­h is a medium-sized resort town. Naturally it is very much geared around beach life, with plenty of places to enjoy a family meal or a drink with friends.

For a greater range of amenities and for work opportunit­ies, Cornwall’s capital city of Truro is less than ten miles away, with everything you’d need from high street and independen­t shops, the county’s main hospital and county council, the cathedral, cinema and theatres. This proximity means there is a vibrant year-round mix of locals and visitors.

Communicat­ions: Perranport­h is only about five miles off the A30 trunk road. Regular bus services connect the neighbouri­ng towns and villages. Truro is the nearest main line train station on the London-Penzance line. Shopping: For food, Perranport­h has a small but well-stocked Co-op; or you can buy local at the Perranport­h Country Market. Naturally there’s a great range of surf shops, and also hairdresse­rs and pet shops, gift shops and thrift shops. Schools: Perranport­h has its own community primary school, with other options at Mithian and Goonhavern. Newquay and Truro have the nearest secondary schools; Truro also has a range of independen­t options across all ages, as well as a popular college.

Pubs and restaurant­s: Great food choices in this fun town, especially in summer. The Watering Hole boasts to be the UK’s only bar on the beach, hosting live acts which you can enjoy the sand between your toes.

You can get authentic pizza at the Cornish Pizza Company, pub grub and a quaff at the Tywarnhayl­e Inn or Driftwood Spars, which serves a selection of “proper” Cornish ales and barista-style coffee.
