Polruan (Cornish: Porthruwan)[1] is a coastal village in the parish of Lanteglos-by-Fowey in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is bounded on three sides by water: to the north by Pont Creek, to the west by the River Fowey and to the south by the English Channel and neighbours village Bodinnick to the north, connected by a 4-mile walk along the hill tops.[2] Polruan is very steep and well protected from the prevailing winds and Polruan Pool is a haven for small boats.
