Is the small National Trust Car Park area named Port Quin. It was deserted during our visit on a Sunday Night. Hope to visit when The Salt Pig is open. Very Picturesque Area. Take a look.

Port Isaac Pottery

All of our pieces of pottery are handmade to the highest standards and we take pride in the high quality of our work. Precious metal lustres and gold are applied and each piece has at least three firings in both our electric and gas-fired kilns. The bold and elegant forms complement the watercolour-style decoration, which are often inspired by the North Cornwall coastline. All of our pottery is made in our workshop here at Port Isaac Pottery. Port Isaac Pottery is now proud to include the work of the rest of the family; Faye Hawkins with her unique handmade ceramics and her exclusively designed baby and toddler clothing range "Small Fry", Jo Hawkins upstairs gallery selling a range of giftware and clothing and Matthew Main's award-winning, inspirational photography. Chapel Cafe is a new addition to the family run business of Port Isaac Pottery. Our passion is simple local food & drink and great service! We prepare all of our food on the premises.

The cakes were nice, the coffee was pretty good but the ambience was wonderful. Such a lovely place to spend a little time. It was light and airy - we were pretty toasty next to the fire. Lovely to wonder round the crafts afterwards.

Harbour, Port Isaac, Cornwall

Reviewed By neilforshaw9 - Manchester, United Kingdom

Well worth a visit, lovely little place, all the sites from Doc Martin TV series, fishmonger well worth a visit as was the gift shop, only bad point was the 20p charge for each toilet, best to park at large carpark at top of hill, not too bad walking down but a bit of a hike getting back up.
