sandy shores, coastal views, salty sea breeze

Long summer days by the Cornish coast

THE PIG-at Harlyn Bay

This is when our Cornwall hideaway really comes into its own

With long, sun-soaked days settling over the North Cornish coastline, the gardens and surrounding clifftops are alive with colour, wildlife and fresh sea air. There’s every excuse to linger outside a little longer, glass in hand, soaking up the summer breeze.

From fresh, garden-led feasting in our restaurant to laid-back, wood-fired dining at The Lobster Shed, summer here is all about the great outdoors. Think salty sea-air walks with sandy toes, live music drifting through the garden and long, lazy afternoons that roll effortlessly into warm evenings, summertime, the PIG way.

Step Outside: Summer Walks & Garden Wanders

Just moments from our doorstep, you’ll find big Atlantic views and stretches of sandy shores, rugged coves, wild moorland and picturesque harbour villages. Strike out along coastal path, wander across clifftops with the salty wind in your hair, or take a slower mooch along the beach as the tide rolls in and out. 

Our team has rounded up some of their favourite local routes, perfect for working up an appetite before lunch at the Lobster Shed or stretching things out after a leisurely breakfast.

Stretch your legs

Laid-back, outdoor dining is back!

The Lobster Shed is our laid-back, sun-soaked spot just a five-minute walk from Harlyn Bay Beach, and the best spot to eat in Cornwall in summer. This season, it’s all about fresh local fish, wood-roasted meats, and garden-grown sides… think big flavours, cold drinks, and salty air filling your days. Just throw on your flip-flops (we like to keep it casual), grab a friend or six, and come and soak up the atmosphere.

Swing by The Lobster Shed

Unwind in the Potting Sheds  

Our treatment rooms are some of our favourite spots to hide out, tucked away in the peace and quiet of the Kitchen Garden. Sinking into a massage, facial or scrub while the rest of the world does its thing feels like a really good kind of treat.

It’s time carved out just for you.

Golden hour: Buttered & Baked

After a long, countryside ramble, there’s only one sensible next step. Settle in for Buttered & Baked - generous, comforting and proudly un‑fussy, ‘perfect-for-3pm’ kind of moreish treats.

Think warm, savoury, cheesy, buttery bites and plentiful homebaked sweet things to finish. It’s the perfect pairing for a mid-week spring wander, whether you’re staying the night or just dropping in.

Have teatime, THE PIG way
