the roseland is a nice area to, look for st mawes and portscatho on a map, 2 nice beaches called carne beach and Pendower (they are 1 when the tide is out) another place to see is the minack theatre, if you can get tickets to see somthing while you are here its worth seeing somthing there. try to avoid newquay, chav central, packed, and basically hyped for no reason.
Just been to St Ives, it has everything you said you want.
We stayed here - http://www.nookstives.co.uk/
Nice B&B with own parking, 15 minute walk from town centre or short cab ride.

my exact thought as well, roseland is a great area, especially the further towards the point you go.
Minack, was there earlier today, well fishing and swimming that is, lovly beach just below the minack, and 2 coves over to the left is a nudist beach
(also, dont bother paying for minack, just walk round the bottom of the cliff and climb up over the back wall
)
best advice, aviod newquay for above reasons, stay away from camborne/pool/redruth, also, if you see any signs for Treneere or Gwavas, then run, run for your life!

Perranporth is nice, stayed there for a week about 2 years ago.
St. Ives is also nice but usually packed (and avoid eating out here, food is pretty bad). Another place to look out for is Sennen Cove, just before Land's End. And I'll put my vote for avoiding Newquay, reason as stated by poosemon

Cornwall is a nice place to go as long as you dont enjoy driving!!
All the roads where designed and built by a drunk monkey
Main roads that get so narrow in parts you have to stop for oncoming traffic and roads that just stop, in the middle of nowhere!

This is true. The further West you go the smaller the roads, often barely enough for a single vehicle. My gf refuses to drive down there at all. I on the otherhand absolutely love driving down there. I find All the wriggling around tiny roads quite fun and it makes driving around interesting.
only the emmits stop for oncoming traffic.MNuTz said:Cornwall is a nice place to go as long as you dont enjoy driving!!
