Polkerris Cornwall Map

About Polkerris

Polkerris, a quiet hamlet in Cornwall, whispers tales of maritime past to the salty air. It lies 3.2 km west of Fowey (from Fowey: bearing 276°T, OS grid SX 093 521), and is situated south-east of Par village. The gentle incline of its land towards the sea imbues Polkerris with a palpable connection to the water, where the light often catches the surface in a thousand fleeting glints. Historically, its modest harbour would have bustled with the comings and goings of small vessels, a vital artery for this secluded corner of the coast. Even now, a certain timeless quality pervades Polkerris, as if the very stones of its few cottages absorb the slow, patient rhythm of the tides. The surrounding landscape, a tender blend of cultivated fields and wilder coastal scrub, frames Polkerris with a subtle, enduring beauty.
