Penrose Estate: Gunwalloe and Loe Pool

At the heart of the Penrose Estate lies Loe Pool, a freshwater lake which meets the sea at the dramatic shingle bank of Loe Bar.

Surrounding the Pool is a mix of rich farmland and woodland through which there are many paths, including the 5-mile circuit of the Pool itself. At Gunwalloe, two sandy coves lie either side of the 14th-century church (not NT) and the valley reedbed provides a haven for bird life.
