Dog-friendly Holidays on Cornwall's North Coast
Cornwall’s North Coast is big-beach country, and one of the best places in the county for a dog-friendly holiday by the sea. Atlantic surf rolls in from Bude down to Newquay and Perranporth, there are wide sandy bays for a proper run, and the coast path links one headland to the next. Padstow and Rock sit either side of the Camel Estuary, with the Camel Trail heading inland for a flat, traffic-free walk with your dog. Some of the busiest beaches close to dogs in high summer, but there’s always another dog-friendly beach round the corner.
