This lighthearted coastal village is known for its row of Stippy-Stappy sea captains' cottages that hint at a seafaring past. Today St Agnes campsites are the basis of serene walking holidays, taking in the area's hidden coves, sweeping cliffs and inquisitive wildlife. For a peek at the tin and copper mining industry that founded St Agnes, take the mining trail past the Wheel Coates Mine to the old mine shaft right by Chapel Porth Beach.
