Dog friendly beach with sand dunes, plus one mile walk to dog friendly pub, Cornwall
PL24 2AR
Description
This walk is 0.9 mile, mainly flat terrain. The Royal Inn has plenty of outside eating benches with gazebo covering. Currently open for business from noon each day. It is best to check the high tide times and go at low tide in order to have maximum space to exercise dogs. Plenty of litter and dog bins on this walk.
