**Penhale** (Cornish: *Pennhal*)[1] is a village in [Cornwall](/source/Cornwall), England, United Kingdom. It is about 6 miles (9.7 km) east-southeast of [Newquay](/source/Newquay) and 10 miles (16 km) west-southwest of [Bodmin](/source/Bodmin).[2]

The village is on the course of the [A30](/source/A30_road) trunk road. The road used to run through the village but is now re-routed half-a-mile south as a [dual carriageway](/source/Dual_carriageway) [bypass](/source/Bypass_(road)).

Penhale is in the [civil parish](/source/Civil_parish) of [St Enoder](/source/St_Enoder) and the nearest villages are [Fraddon](/source/Fraddon), [St Columb Road](/source/St_Columb_Road) and [Indian Queens](/source/Indian_Queens). Just north of Penhale is the settlement of [Blue Anchor](/source/Blue_Anchor,_Cornwall), a historic stopping point along [The Trafalgar Way](/source/The_Trafalgar_Way).

The Penhale Round pub, located beside the A30, is said to be built on the site of a prehistoric settlement that has had evidence of occupation excavated dating back to the Middle Bronze Age (circa 1300-900 BC).[3]
