Gool Perran Lowen - Happy St Piran's Day in Cornish!
St Piran's Day, celebrated on March 5th, is the national day of Cornwall, named after one of Cornwall's patron saints. According to legend, St Piran, a 5th century Irish Abbot, was thrown into the sea in Ireland tied to a mill stone; somehow he washed up on the Cornish coast still alive. He made Cornwall his new home and became the patron saint of tin-miners after rediscovering tin smelting.
Today, Cornwall still celebrates his heritage. On the closest Sunday to St Piran's day, Perranorth hosts one of the largest St Piran's celebrations. Held at the dunes on Perranporth, a play is performed to re-enact St Piran's life. Spectators are welcomed and encouraged to dress in black, white and gold, the colours of Cornwall.
Other celebrations will be held in various locations across Cornwall.

We had a fantastic second visit at Castle Cottage. The location of the property is so convenient and it’s great to find a cottage in Port Isaac which is dog friendly. The house has everything you could want and more! The twin bedroom ond the third floor is beautiful and what a view too! The house was clean and beautifully furnished. We look forwards to coming back in the near future!
Ms Watson-Smyth May 2018
A very comfortable stay at Castle Cottage. The cottage was warm and welcoming. The views from top floor bedroom were fabulous. Great location in the heart of the village. A most memorable New Years break, looking forward to returning in May.
Ms Watson-Smyth December 2017
Great location for the pub, cafes and restaurants, as well as the fishing beach. Fun character property with quirky features and a great sea view from the top floor.
