Wedding Photographer The Nare Hotel — Carne Beach, the Roseland Peninsula and the Cornish Coastline
The Nare Hotel on the Roseland Peninsula near Veryan is Cornwall’s most discreetly positioned and most naturally beautiful coastal hotel wedding venue — a country house hotel above Carne Beach on the Roseland Peninsula’s south coast, whose private beach at Carne itself, the hotel’s Victorian walled garden, the clifftop coastal path above Pendower Beach and the Roseland Heritage Coast’s extraordinary sequence of sheltered south-facing inlets and rocky headlands provide a Cornish coastal backdrop of exceptional seclusion and natural beauty. For The Nare Hotel wedding photography, the combination of the hotel’s private beach, the clifftop path and the Roseland’s extraordinary sub-tropical coastal vegetation of tree ferns, agapanthus and echiums provide portrait settings of Cornish coastal hotel character at its most intimate and most exclusive.
Carne Beach, the Clifftop Walk and Pendower Beach
Carne Beach — the private beach below the Nare Hotel’s cliff garden, accessible from the hotel’s beach path and relatively sheltered by the headland above — provides the primary beach portrait setting of white Cornish sand, the clear turquoise shallows and the granite cliff above: a Cornish beach portrait of considerable private quality. The clifftop path between Carne and Pendower Beach — the South West Coast Path running along the Roseland’s south face, with the views west to Nare Head’s rocky cliffs and east to Zone Point’s lighthouse — provides a clifftop portrait setting of Cornish Heritage Coast character. Pendower Beach immediately north — a larger sand beach backed by sand dunes with the Nare Head visible to the west — provides a second adjacent portrait beach.
The Roseland Peninsula, St Mawes and the Fal Estuary
The Roseland Peninsula’s interior — the rolling south Cornwall farmland above the sheltered creeks and inlets of the Percuil River and the Fal estuary’s western arm, with the National Trust’s Trelissick Garden’s Italian-style terraced garden visible across the King Harry Ferry crossing — provides a Cornish coastal and rural portrait landscape of extraordinary diversity within fifteen minutes of the Nare. St Mawes — the fishing village and harbour at the Roseland’s tip — provides a specific harbour portrait setting with the sixteenth-century St Mawes Castle’s Tudor cloverleaf fortress visible across the Castle’s private beach. Heligan’s Lost Gardens fifteen miles west provide a second garden portrait option.
