The impressive coastline with its contorted rock layers at Crackington Haven in #Cornwall comes under the care of the National Trust which has encouraged the use of soay sheep to graze the clifftops along with goats and cattle. The trust says the grazing helps to keep scrub down so that wildflowers can flourish.
South of Crackington Haven, the South West Coast Path passes above Tremoutha Haven before reaching the Cambeak headland. To the south of Cambeak are the undercliffs and bays of Little Strand beach and the Strangles beach. The stretch of coastline here has seen numerous shipwrecks.
The National Trust owns Trevigue Farm which is inland from the Strangles beach. The nearby wooded Ludon Valley, through which there is a footpath towards Crackington Haven, provides a relatively sheltered walk compared to the rugged coastline.
