Widegates Cornwall Map

About Widegates

Widegates, a Cornish hamlet, exhales the quietude of the South West. It lies 5.5 km north-north-east of Looe (from Looe: bearing 30°T, OS grid SX 284 579), and is situated north-east of No Man's Land village. The air here, especially in the late afternoon, carries a certain soft luminescence, as if the sun itself lingers, reluctant to surrender its golden touch to the deepening shadows. The land around Widegates rolls with a gentle, purposeful grace, a prelude to the more dramatic contours of the Cornish coast, its fields a patchwork of greens and golds under the expansive sky. Life in Widegates unfolds with a steady, unhurried cadence, the occasional bleating of sheep or the distant hum of a tractor the dominant sounds.
