About a holiday in Port Isaac...
Port Isaac is a quintessential Cornish fishing village, known for its narrow, winding streets lined with charming whitewashed cottages that overlook a picturesque harbour, locally referred to as the Platt. Since 2004, it has gained fame as the fictional village of Port Wenn in the BBC series Doc Martin.
With a fishing heritage dating back to the early fourteenth century, Port Isaac has always been deeply connected to the sea, and fishing continues to play a significant role in the lives of its residents. The village’s name comes from the Cornish Porthysek, meaning 'corn port', a nod to its historic role in the grain trade.
Despite its modest size, Port Isaac boasts some excellent dining options, including Nathan Outlaw's Fish Kitchen, offering fresh, local seafood in an unforgettable setting.
Much of Port Isaac’s charm lies in wandering its historic streets, which feel like a step back in time to simpler days. The village’s atmosphere, with its stone cottages and winding lanes, is a true delight to explore. However, there are a few key attractions to enjoy as well.
At the heart of the village is the harbour, where local fishermen still bring in their daily catch. From here, you can stroll down the slipway to Port Isaac Beach at low tide, where you can walk along the sand and explore the large rockpools, home to various sea creatures.
Port Isaac is also home to a number of quaint galleries, pottery shops, and souvenir stores. Take time to browse these local businesses, where you can find unique artwork, handmade crafts, and keepsakes to remember your visit.
