Hi! I've lived in Portreath for over 20 years and have successfully ran a holiday home for 5 years. I'm happy to answer any questions you have regarding our properties or the local area, plus I can advise on which beaches will have the best waves during your stay. Cheers, Ryan

Portreath is a small resort with a very narrow harbour located about 5 miles north of Redruth. It was once a busy port, importing coal and exporting copper but now only sheltering the occasional fishing boat. The original loading ramp can still be seen in the village. Copper ore was transported from mines, in the Chacewater area, using horse-drawn wagons, and was shipped by the ton to Swansea in South Wales for smelting. The ships would return, laden with Welsh coal. The harbour entrance was quite hazardous and tremendous skill must have been required to navigate sailing ships into the port. Some of the ships carry well over a hundred tons of ore. The pretty, sandy beach has a stream running down to the sea on the left hand side. It is a popular family beach which, like many beaches on the north Cornish coast, is popular with surfers and in particular bodyboarders who turn up in force at high tide on big swells to surf the harbour wall. There are several shops, cafés and holiday accommodation in Portreath. The village has a very friendly atmosphere and caters for most needs of tourists, whilst not being over-commercialised.
