Hearing how Porthcurno and Kynance Cove beaches have been overrun with visitors this summer, I’ve decided to amend my original post and take these two locations out of my original Top 10 Poldark filming locations. It’s now a Top 8! While these two places are amongst my favourite spots in Cornwall, I would urge you to only visit them out of season to enjoy them at their most beautiful.
With the return of the ever-so-dashing Poldark to our screens, my mind wanders to the captivating beauty of Cornwall and the spectacular locations of this TV drama. While we have explored Cornwall numerous times over the years, Mr Skylark and I took on a chunk of the Cornish coast path last September. We spent 5 days walking from St Ives to Penzance. It was on this occasion that we were lucky enough to bump into the cast and crew of Poldark, who were filming on location.
Although Poldark has been filmed outside of Cornwall too, read on for my favourite Cornish filming locations and discover where we bumped into the cast and crew for a behind the scenes look at filming.
