Make cherished memories at The Nook.

St. Mawgan, a quaint Cornish village in the Lanherne Valley to the north of Newquay, is a must-see. There's a church in the town that was built in the 1300s and is dedicated to Saints Maganus and Nicholas. A memorial to the sailors who perished from the cold in these waters in 1846 can be seen in the form of a rowboat's stern, which stands out among the other tombstones. St. Mawgan is situated on the banks of the River Menalhyl, and it is home to two homely inns, a convenient general store, a post office, and a couple of delightful tea rooms. Two miles from St. Mawgan, you'll find the beach at Mawgan Porth, as well as a beautiful Japanese garden where you can buy indoor Bonsai trees, succulents, Buddha statues, and wind chimes. St. Mawgan is in a prime location, with Newquay Cornwall Airport situated just outside the town.
