Seaside village in West Country that's a magnet for Hollywood celebs

If you love holidaying in Cornwall and you also love a bit of celeb spotting, then Mawgan Porth should definitely be the next destination on your list of must-visit places. It's becoming increasingly popular among Hollywood royalty, while also being an idyllic holiday destination that's only a few hours' drive from Bristol.

As Cornwall Live describes, the Cornish village boasts an open bay with caves and rock pools, a consistent Atlantic swell, tall picturesque cliffs and a wooded valley for long coastal walks. What's more, it's only four miles north of Newquay and a mile or so down the road from Cornwall Airport Newquay.

According to locals, though, there is a downside to being in such a beautiful destination - many can't afford housing in the area due to the rising prices that often come hand-in-hand with rising popularity. However, there's still a fairly undeveloped feel to Mawgan Porth, which could be the draw for a number of Hollywood celebrities and award-winning musicians searching for what has been dubbed an 'unspoilt paradise'.
