Lusty Glaze is a privately owned beach and cove with beautiful golden sands sheltered by dramatic 200ft cliffs. The somewhat quirky sounding name is said to  come from the Cornish for ‘a place to view blue boats’.

Lusty Glaze is known for its summer events calendar. As well as being a popular spot for weddings the cove also hosts some fairly sizeable music events.
