Rosudgeon

Rosudgeon is a quiet hamlet that lies slightly inland from one of Cornwall’s most prized stretches of coastland - a brilliant base for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of nearby towns Penzance and Helston.

There’s plenty to discover, from historic Cornish landmarks and miles-upon-miles of coastal paths - to a plethora of untouched coves just waiting to be explored, including Prussia Cove.

Rich in smuggling history, the cove was once a favourite haunt of John Carter, known as the ‘The King of Prussia’ - who landed much of his loot on the beach. Today it is home to a small harbour and slipway, which is still used by local fishermen. The beach offers fantastic snorkelling opportunities and is dog friendly all year round – a fantastic family day out in Cornwall.

Rosudgeon offers good local amenities including a general store, pub and large sports ground, where the weekly car boot sale is held.
