About:
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 watcher's 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.
