Keneggy Sands Beach - West Cornwall

Secluded, sandy beach with difficult access. At low tide it's a reasonable sized beach but it all but disappears on higher tides. The setting and surroundings are particularly agreeable with a mock Elizabethan manor house overlooking the bay and a plethera of quaint cottages on the walk down.

Directions: Take coastal path and descend down low cliff by rope. Alternatively, take the track around the headland from Prussia Cove.
