Cornwall National Landscape (Copy)
National Landscapes are designated on account of their “outstanding natural beauty”. This includes a combination of factors such as landscape quality, scenic quality, relative wildness, relative tranquillity, natural heritage features and cultural heritage. Pendower Beach exemplifies the combination of these attributes and this gives rise to its uniquely sensitive character.
Wildlife of Pendower
Nestled behind Pendower Beach lies a hidden gem for nature lovers — a rich and diverse landscape that forms part of the Pennarin Point to Portscatho County Wildlife Site (CWS). This area is one of Cornwall’s most important havens for wildlife, and while County Wildlife Sites are not legally protected, they are recognised as being of special significance for biodiversity.
