St. Kew is a small, rural parish in north Cornwall, England, centred on the village and the hamlet of St. Kew Highway. Set among rolling farmland and lanes, it sits within easy reach of the north Cornwall coast, Bodmin and Bodmin Moor, making it a quiet base for walkers and cyclists exploring the surrounding countryside.
Historically agricultural, the parish retains a strong community feel with a medieval parish church and a handful of local businesses and pubs; the growth of St. Kew Highway was influenced by a former railway presence. Today the local economy mixes farming with tourism - holiday cottages, campsites and day visitors enjoy the peace, rural heritage and seasonal village events that help bind the community together.
