About St Teath

St Teath is situated in North Cornwall between the B3314 coast road and the A39, centered around the beautiful church dedicated to St Tetha, daughter of King Brychan.
Although the population is only about 2000 people, there is a strong community spirit.

The village has a fine Inn (The White Hart), Post Office, two general stores and a butcher's shop. As well as the White Hart there are several establishments providing Bed & Breakfast. Being located close to the coastal villages of Port Isaac and Tintagel, and also near the infamous Bodmin Moor, it makes an ideal base from which to tour North Cornwall. There are plenty of interesting walks starting from the village, many leading to the superb peaceful backwoods of the Allen Valley. Flora and Fauna abound in this area.
