HolywellThe village of Holywell is a popular resort destination, though it is less crowded than nearby Newquay. It offers a full compliment of traditional family activities, including pitch-and-putt, a leisure park, and sea bathing off the sandy beach, which stretches for about half a mile. The area is also popular with surfers. There are excellent clifftop walks, and if you're lucky you may sight a dolphin on your walk. The well after which the town is named can be visited at low tide. A cave at the north end of the beach leads to a freshwater spring where, it is said, early monks would baptise local children.
