Perhaps the greatest feature of this area is the spectacular North Cornwall coast with its scenery and cliff walks; safe, sandy beaches like Daymer Bay and beaches such as Polzeath renowned for favourable surfing conditions.

A variety of water-sports and fishing trips are available locally – the closest being at Rock, which is also just a short ferry trip from the lively harbour town of Padstow.

Heading inland, the Camel Estuary is a perfect spot for bird watchers, walkers and cyclists of all abilities with the Camel Trail following the river for 26 miles from Padstow to Bodmin via Wadebridge.

Golfers are spoilt for choice with three first class 18-hole courses within easy travelling distance and an excellent, pay-as-you-play 9-hole course with a driving range just up the road.

There are a number of historic properties to visit: the National Trust’s Lanhydrock House is nearby, as is the privately owned Pencarrow House, which also hosts an annual ‘Jazz in the Garden’ event.

Cornwall’s mild climate means that gardens are a speciality of the county and there are many beautiful ones to see. Of course, for the ultimate botanical experience there is also the Eden Project, which is less than an hour’s drive away.

There is something to suit everyone here and we are always happy to help you get the best from your visit.
