Portwinkle Textures and Nature Downderry Cornwall England in November . A great stretch of quiet beach. Just along the headland going East from the village. Downderry (Cornish: Downderri) is a coastal village in southeast Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated 12 miles (19 km) west of Plymouth and one mile east of Seaton.[1]

Downderry has a long beach of light shingle. There is road access down to the beach via a slipway although this is blocked by a locked gate, pedestrian access is still possible. Dogs are allowed on the beach. The beach further east is a nudist beach.[a][2]

The village and beach offer views of Looe Island to the west and Rame Head to the east and on clear days the Eddystone Lighthouse 8 miles (13 km) offshore.

The village has a Church of England church, a Methodist chapel, a shop with a post office, a pub, a restaurant, a coffee shop and a primary school.

The Church of St Nicolas Downderry began as a mission church to service the growing population of the village. The building dates from the late 19th century. The beach is well used by naturists.
