St John's Church from Gardenstown
Gardenstown
Walk past the densely-packed fishermen's cottages of Gardenstown and across the beach before following a grassy path to a ruined churchyard, with stunning views back to Gardenstown. The adventurous can continue on a very rugged path near steep drops for even better views.
Terrain - Pebble and sand beach then a grassy path climbing up to the churchyard. The optional path onward up the cliff is very rough, narrow and could be dangerous.
