The narrow harbor of Portreath is 3 mi (5 km) from the town of Redruth. This village in north Cornwall sits on a river valley and boasts sandy beaches. Cyclists can take the old mining road to ride nonstop to Devoran in the south. Known in the United Kingdom as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), the village is also part of a company of hedgehog-friendly villages. Also, the port that once received tons of copper and coal is now home to fishing boats and intrepid travelers. Families, bodyboarders, and surfers populate the coastline. The idyllic atmosphere is preserved, making Portreath the destination of choice for tourists who prefer to stay away from commercialized resort communities. If you’re planning to visit this destination, here are the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Portreath, Redruth, UK.
