Carne and Pendower

Two amazing sandy beaches on the Roseland peninsula
Two amazing sandy beaches on the Roseland peninsula
Two of the best family beaches on the Roseland peninsula, with fine stretches of sand and rock pools. Walk along the coast and inland to discover the rich wildlife around; it's a butterfly and bird watchers paradise.
Take a walk inland behind Carne beach to discover the remains of an iron age settlement sitting at the base of the Beacon, telling the story of how people once lived and worked. On nearby Nare Head are clues to its use in the second work war and Cold War. Up on the coast path you may stumble upon tiny ramshackled 'Mallets Cottage' where you can stop a while to catch your breath, stare out to sea and imagine life in earlier times.

Most of our places run the Gift Aid on Entry scheme at their admission points.

If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you a clear choice between the Gift Aid Admission prices and the Standard Admission prices at the admission point. It's entirely up to you which ticket you choose.
Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid - an extra 25 per cent - potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below:
