Pennan

Tiny one-street village with stone cottages and harbour. To the west, the road plunges down to Cullykhan Bay, where waves pound into huge clefts and caves. To the east, sheer cliffs of red sandstone provide nesting sites for numerous sea birds. Cliffs pitted with caves and tunnels, accessible at low tide. Excellent movie " Local Hero " was filmed in Pennan.

Hi,just found your site in a surf,stayed in Pennan for a holiday about 10 years ago.We had a great stay in the village and local area,even read the Local Hero scrapbook in the pub.I have the film on video,all one can say why oh why do we get so much rubbish on television when we can roll out films like this ? Good luck with your site,Cheers Phil.
