Set back from the road that takes you straight down to the golden sands of Polzeath Beach, Meneghy is the ultimate base for a holiday filled with sand, surf and sunsets.
Start your day with a relaxing stroll down to the beach where you can enjoy an exhilarating surf session. With an array of fantastic surf schools based on the beach, you can hire everything you need and be standing up in no time at all. Refuel with a hearty brunch in one of the vibrant surf cafés overlooking the beach.
It's easy to join the South West Coast Path from Meneghy and you will be spoilt for choice with breathtaking coastal walks.
