Trebetherick Point is a rocky, cliff outcrop separating Hayle Bay, Polzeath from Daymer Bay Beach to the South. The remains of shipwrecks can still be seen on the dangerous jagged rocks. The National Trust owns most of the Point. In Cornish “Tre” means Home. It came to fame as the landing point of the Welsh missionary St Petroc in the early 500’s AD on his way to establish Padstow.
Trebetherick, Rock has long been a haunt of nature lovers, and recently has attracted celebrities and royalty, including Hugh Grant and Princes William and Harry and recently the PM David Cameron.
It is an area of outstanding beauty with a rugged coastline, un-spoilt beaches perfect for children (Broadagogue is a must at low spring tides) and within easy access of the South West Coast Path.
There is also a small inlet with a cave filled with Cornish quartz, but you will have to look for that yourself!
The new St. Moritz development has enhanced its reputation and comes complete with the renowned Cow Spa.
