<strong>The</strong> long-awaited Drama was mainly shot in <strong>Cornwall</strong>. When<br />
the cast and crew filmed during the summers of 2014/2015 they<br />
caused quite a flurry of excitement. Aidan Turner and Eleanor<br />
Tomlinson were spotted up down the county.
Here is Visit <strong>Cornwall</strong>’s<br />
behind-the-scenes guide<br />
to the towns and beaches that<br />
took a turn in the spotlight:<br />
Truro<br />
While Corsham in Wiltshire doubled as Truro for<br />
filming, the City itself was Winston Graham’s true<br />
inspiration for the story and was the location<br />
of choice for the world premiere of the series.<br />
Producers, writers and the headline cast joined lucky<br />
locals for an exclusive viewing of the first episode and<br />
won their first of many rave reviews.<br />
PORTHGWARRA<br />
Once a thriving fishing cove, the beautiful<br />
Porthgwarra sits at the heart of St Aubyn Estates and<br />
boasts a peaceful existence with its days surrounded<br />
by wildflowers and birdlife. <strong>The</strong> tunnel cut through<br />
the rock makes it perfect for swimming and rock<br />
pooling while the South West Coast Path offers<br />
unsurpassed views. Stop in the Porthgwarra Cove<br />
Cafe (seasonal) or pack a traditional picnic for an 18th<br />
Century Poldark experience.<br />
Bodmin Moor<br />
<strong>The</strong> cast and crew found themselves on Bodmin<br />
Moor for a large part of their time in <strong>Cornwall</strong>.<br />
Scenes featuring the exterior of Ross Poldark’s<br />
cottage, Nampara, were shot here along with many<br />
capturing the cast on horseback. With a rugged<br />
character and wild streak, Bodmin Moor provides<br />
the perfect backdrop to Poldark’s plot of passion<br />
and family dramatics.<br />
BOTALLACK<br />
TO LE VA N T<br />
Location managers couldn’t resist the rich mining<br />
heritage of the stretch of west <strong>Cornwall</strong> coast linking<br />
Botallack and Levant. Cameras rolled with Levant<br />
Mine playing the role of the fictional Tressiders<br />
Rolling Mill while Owles and Crowns near Botallack<br />
starred as Wheal Leisure.<br />
Charlestown<br />
Charlestown near St Austell, famed for its collection<br />
of ships and traditional appearance, has long caught<br />
the attention of location managers and in some<br />
scenes plays the role of the principal town. As you<br />
wander along the side of the original Grade II Listed<br />
harbour complete with Tall Ships, you can almost<br />
imagine that you’ve been cast as an extra or have<br />
been transported to Graham Winston’s 18th<br />
Century setting.<br />
PADSTOW AREA<br />
For some of the cliff scenes the filming action<br />
moved to the Padstow area. Fans of north <strong>Cornwall</strong><br />
will recognise the spectacular views across the<br />
Camel Estuary and Tregirls beach, while the beauty<br />
of the wide sandy beach of Porthcothan is hard<br />
to miss in the scenes featuring Poldark’s fictional<br />
Nampara Cove.<br />
St Agnes Head<br />
Another area that enjoyed<br />
a taste of Hollywood is St<br />
Agnes Head where iconic<br />
engine houses perch<br />
serenely on the cliff-tops<br />
offering a silent reminder<br />
of <strong>Cornwall</strong>’s mining<br />
heyday. A natural location<br />
choice, it doubles as<br />
Nampara Valley in<br />
the show.<br />
Church Cove<br />
Gunwallow<br />
Church Cove Gunwallow on <strong>The</strong> Lizard relived its<br />
smuggling past when Aidan Turner and a hoard<br />
of other cast members and extras descended<br />
to film night-time ship wrecking scenes. While<br />
the events of the night highlight the nicer side of<br />
Turner’s character, the villagers don’t come off<br />
in such a good light - away from the cameras<br />
though and the scene on a normal day is<br />
much more peaceful. An attractive sandy cove<br />
overlooked by the tiny church of St Wynwallow.<br />

a simple plane or boat trip away.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir unspoilt beauty offer a<br />
peaceful retreat from the hustle<br />

Why Go? <strong>The</strong>re are many reasons to visit these<br />
beautiful islands. Whether it’s to soak up the<br />
traditional way of life, uncover its history, marvel at<br />
the breath-taking scenery and subtropical plants and<br />
flowers through walking, cycling or sailing, or savour<br />
the tastes of fresh seafood and locally produced<br />
delicacies, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.<br />
Once you’ve explored the shops, galleries and<br />
eateries of Hugh Town on St Mary’s, wander further<br />
afield on foot or by bike along quiet roads to discover<br />
more of what this lovely island has to offer.<br />

<strong>The</strong> passenger ship, Scillonian III, departs from<br />
Penzance and takes 2 hours and 40 minutes to reach<br />
St Mary’s, Scilly’s main island, passing St Michael’s<br />
Mount and the famous Wolf Rock Lighthouse on its<br />
journey. Maximise your time on the islands by flying<br />
instead of catching the boat. Flights depart from<br />
Newquay and Land’s End.
EXPLORE<br />

Former Prime Minister Lord Harold Wilson is<br />
buried in the peaceful churchyard at Old Town on<br />
the South Coast, where you’ll also discover many<br />
lovely places to eat. <strong>The</strong> lighthouse at Peninnis<br />
Head offers stunning views of the prominent rock<br />
formations of Pulpit Rock, Tooth Rock and<br />
the ‘Sleeping Giant’.<br />
A slightly longer walk away, you’ll find Watermill<br />
Cove and Pelistry Beach, where at low tide you can<br />
walk across to Toll’s Island, and Porth Hellick Bay,<br />
a pretty cove with dramatic rock formations and a<br />
sheltered beach. Here a nature trail, famed for its<br />
abundance of native and migratory birds, stretches<br />
back to the tiny hamlet of Holy Vale. <strong>The</strong> Iron Age<br />
village at Halangy Down and Bronze Age tombs at<br />
Innisidgen give a fascinating insight of the islands’<br />
ancient history.<br />

NATURAL BEAUTY<br />
01872 261735<br />
Nearly a third of <strong>Cornwall</strong> is designated<br />
as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty<br />
and includes some spectacular coast,<br />
the rugged uplands and tranquil<br />
wooded river valleys.<br />
ST LOY
CONSERVE<br />
& ENHANCE<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Cornwall</strong> Area of Outstanding Natural<br />
Beauty, one of 46 in the UK, is unique in<br />
that it consists of 12 separate geographical<br />
areas but is one single AONB.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se sections include 10 stretches of Cornish<br />
coastline as well as the Camel Estuary and Bodmin<br />
Moor. Nearly 80% of the protected land is farmed and<br />
of course people live there, work there, travel through<br />
and, in large numbers, come to visit. <strong>The</strong> purpose of<br />
the AONB designation, enshrined in national law, is to<br />
‘conserve and enhance the landscape.<br />
FERRYSIDE<br />
INTERNATIONALLY<br />
acclaimed<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Cornwall</strong> AONB has the same status and<br />
protection as a National Park. It is looked<br />
after by a partnership made up of <strong>Cornwall</strong><br />
Council, voluntary bodies, landowners and<br />
communities. At the heart of the partnership<br />
approach is the Management Plan which states<br />
that the <strong>Cornwall</strong> AONB is an internationally<br />
and nationally important landscape valued for<br />
embodying the special character of <strong>Cornwall</strong>.<br />
Businesses often thrive in the most beautiful<br />
areas (and many would love to relocate to them).<br />
Fishing and the marine industries contribute to the<br />
character of the AONB and the landscape is often<br />
the inspiration for <strong>Cornwall</strong>’s creative artists, writers<br />
and performers. Protecting the landscape enhances<br />
bio-diversity and ensures the survival of many rare<br />
species. And the AONB is home to many hugely<br />
important historic and archaeological sites while<br />
the geology is complex, fascinating and varied.<br />
So protecting and enhancing the landscape makes<br />
sound economic sense.<br />
But perhaps most important of all, the landscape<br />
that makes up the <strong>Cornwall</strong> AONB is in our trust.<br />
It is our duty to preserve, enhance and take care<br />
of it - for the generations to come.<br />

displays around every corner too – it’s a city that<br />
prides itself on its gardens and it breathes through<br />
its welcoming open spaces.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Cornish are proud of all their natural wonders, and<br />
rightly so, but they also know how to build a capital city<br />
too – and a visit to their county isn’t complete without<br />
a trip to visit a hidden jewel in the Cornish crown. <strong>The</strong><br />
county’s capital city lies right at its heart – just a short<br />
five miles from the surfing haven of the north coast, and<br />
with some of the best sailing in the UK practically sitting<br />
on its south coast. Getting there is easy too, with nine<br />
city centre carparks and two new Park and Ride services.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are also well connected rail and bus stations, as well<br />
as a passenger ferry service to take you in and out of the<br />
city by boat along the river. So wherever you’re staying in<br />
<strong>Cornwall</strong>, the great little city of Truro is just a skip away.<br />

CHOOSING YOUR<br />
Accommodation<br />
From cosy self-catering cottages to first class hotels, the<br />
warm welcome of a farmhouse bed and breakfast or the fun<br />
and facilities of a holiday park, you’ll be spoilt for choice for<br />
somewhere to stay in the accommodation pages.<br />
CHOOSING<br />
THE LOCATION<br />
We’ve arranged accommodation in the<br />
geographical area to which it relates, e.g. All<br />
<strong>Cornwall</strong>, Farm Accommodation, South Coast,<br />
West <strong>Cornwall</strong>, Bodmin Moor and Tamar Valley,<br />
North Coast, and by accommodation type,<br />
e.g. hotel or self-catering, and geographically<br />
within that area. For a more precise location,<br />
we’ve included a map grid reference on each<br />
advertisement. For example, a map grid<br />
reference of K2 indicates that the property is in<br />
the Bude area of the North Coast.<br />
HOW TO BOOK<br />
With high season accommodation much in<br />
demand, especially self-catering properties,<br />
we recommend booking as early as<br />
possible. Once you’ve made your choice,<br />
contact the accommodation establishment<br />
or agency directly. Please remember that,<br />
in Britain, a telephone booking or written<br />
confirmation is generally accepted as a<br />
legally binding contract. You may also<br />
be required to send a deposit, and this<br />
could be forfeited should you cancel your<br />
reservation.<br />

South<br />
COAST<br />
Stretching from Rame Head to the Helford River,<br />
the South Coast of <strong>Cornwall</strong> is a tranquil blend<br />
of lush green countryside and a pretty coastline,<br />
scattered with hidden bays, traditional fishing<br />
villages and exotic gardens.<br />
SOUTH COAST<br />
Crossing the border into <strong>Cornwall</strong>, you’ll find the twin<br />
villages of Kingsand and Cawsand as the Tamar River<br />
meets the sea. <strong>The</strong> calm waters here are perfect for sailing<br />
and windsurfing and offer some of the best dive sites in<br />
the UK. Nearby is the wide golden expanse of Whitsand<br />
Bay, ideal for surfers and day-trippers alike.<br />
<strong>The</strong> working port of Looe is just the place to<br />
buy freshly caught fish, as well as enjoy the mix<br />
of shops and eateries dotted around the town.<br />
Further along, wonder the traffic-free, narrow<br />
streets of Polperro towards the small harbour to<br />
admire the fisherman’s cottages, sail lofts and<br />
shops selling local crafts and treats.<br />
Take the Bodinnick Ferry across the Fowey River to the<br />
town of Fowey with its upmarket shops, trendy cafés<br />
and wonderful harbour. Upstream, hidden in a magical<br />
woodland setting, the village of Lerryn is said to have been<br />
the inspiration for Kenneth Grahame’s book, “<strong>The</strong> Wind in<br />
the Willows”. At the ancient town of Lostwithiel, once the<br />
capital of <strong>Cornwall</strong>, is a striking 12th Century castle built for<br />
Edward the Black Prince.<br />
<strong>The</strong> tall ships and rows of 18th Century<br />
cottages in Charlestown give a glimpse<br />
of a bygone era, while at Mevagissey,<br />
beyond St Austell and the ever-popular<br />
Eden Project, a scenic boat trip allows<br />
access to the hidden coves once used<br />
by smugglers.<br />
Stretching along the river on the immense Fal<br />
Estuary, St Mawes is a peaceful place to visit. Hard<br />
then to imagine that Henry VIII built its castle<br />
to protect against invasions from the sea! Take<br />
to the water on board one of the many ferries<br />
that cross the estuary and keep a look out for a<br />
multitude of wildlife. <strong>The</strong> climate is so mild here<br />
that tea bushes flourish a few miles away at the<br />
Tregothnan Estate.<br />
Truro, at the<br />
head of the River<br />
Fal, showcases<br />
fine examples<br />
of Cornish<br />
architecture,<br />
such as the<br />
19th Century<br />
Neo-Gothic<br />
cathedral, as<br />
well as many<br />
Victorian and Georgian buildings.<br />
Tempting boutiques, fine restaurants<br />
and fashionable bars make the city a<br />
shopper’s paradise.<br />

water harbour in the world, the superb<br />
National Maritime Museum <strong>Cornwall</strong><br />
and the well regarded creative multi-arts<br />
university, the town of Falmouth offers<br />
a delightful mix of grand hotels, modern<br />
apartments, shops and trendy eateries.<br />
Beyond to the Helford River lies an area<br />
famed for its impossible beauty and<br />
abundant wildlife.<br />
HIGHLIGHTS<br />
A refuge for rescued monkeys from all over the<br />
world, Wild Futures Monkey Sanctuary in Looe<br />
is a fascinating and informative centre.<br />
Home to the biggest grey seal population in<br />
<strong>Cornwall</strong>, a boat trip around Looe Island is sure<br />
to provide some wonderful marine life viewing.<br />
Located at the head of a quiet tidal creek<br />
amongst the wild flowers and wooded valley,<br />
Pont Quay is a perfect place to feed the local<br />
ducks while enjoying a picnic.<br />
For unforgettable views, walk from Menabilly,<br />
once the home of author Daphne Du Maurier, to<br />
the striking red and white striped Gribbin Head<br />
Tower. Standing over 80 feet tall, it helps ships<br />
navigate the treacherous coastline.<br />
Discover a tropical wonderland of oversized<br />
plants from right across the globe at the<br />
infamous Lost Gardens of Heligan.<br />
Cross the waters of the Helford Estuary on a<br />
passenger ferry to truly appreciate the scenery,<br />
and stop in at the renowned Ferry Boat Inn.<br />

through the captivating scenery, ancient<br />
heritage and vibrant communities.<br />
WEST CORNWALL<br />
West CORNWALL<br />
<strong>The</strong> laidback town of Sennen is worth a stop;<br />
it retains its old fishing port charm while<br />
embracing its status as a great surfing destination.<br />
At Porthgwarra you’ll find lofty rock stacks,<br />
steep slipways and mysterious tunnels bored<br />
into the rocks, while at Porthcurno gorgeous<br />
sandy beaches await. <strong>The</strong> small harbour and<br />
pretty narrow streets of Mousehole earned it the<br />
description of the ‘loveliest village in England’ by<br />
Dylan Thomas. Across the bay you’ll catch a glimpse<br />
of the distinctive shape of St Michael’s Mount<br />
with its fairy tale castle. <strong>The</strong> lively seaside town of<br />
Penzance is dotted with fine Regency and Georgian<br />
buildings along with a number of museums and<br />
galleries and a gorgeous Art Deco swimming pool<br />
on the seafront. Perhaps best known for the famous<br />
floral dance that takes place every May, Helston is<br />
also home to the oldest private brewery in the UK.<br />
Sample their famous Spingo at the Blue Anchor Inn.<br />
Jutting out to sea, the Lizard Peninsula<br />
offers a change of scenery and a haven<br />
for exceptional plants and flowers. <strong>The</strong><br />
beautiful beach of Praa Sands is a perfect<br />
seaside destination for families, and at<br />
Porthleven you’ll find local crafts on sale,<br />
as well as restaurants specialising in<br />
freshly caught seafood.<br />
Dotted with kite surfers<br />
and paragliders, Hayle’s<br />
vast golden sands sweep<br />
around the bay where<br />
you can spot St Ives in<br />
the distance.<br />
A firm favourite with<br />
artists for decades<br />
due to the light and<br />
landscape of the<br />
area, this pretty<br />
little town is bustling with<br />
shops, eateries and plenty of art galleries<br />
and studios, as well as the iconic Tate St Ives museum.<br />
On the road west you’ll meander through a<br />
staggeringly beautiful landscape and past tiny<br />
moorland hamlets. Zennor is one of the richest<br />
areas of archaeological remains in Europe, boasting<br />
Neolithic quoits, burial chambers and stone circles,<br />
and St Just was at the hub of the copper and tin<br />
mining boom in the 19th Century.<br />

Kynance Cove is a white sandy bay with stunningly<br />
clear water and surrounded by rocky outcrops.<br />
While you’re here, find out about <strong>Cornwall</strong>’s role in<br />
worldwide communication at the Marconi Centre at<br />
Poldhu Cove.<br />
Inland at the well-preserved Iron Age villages of<br />
Chysauster and Carneuny, explore the courtyards and<br />
terraced gardens for a sense of time gone by before<br />
heading on to the wonderfully dramatic landscape of<br />
Cape <strong>Cornwall</strong> and Land’s End.

Other notable places to visit include the<br />
delightfully quaint Cadgwith with its tiny<br />

of Coverack overlooking the sea and<br />
St Keverne, whose central square hosts<br />
male voice choirs and brass bands in<br />
summer performances.<br />

HIGHLIGHTS<br />
Experience the exhilaration of standing on the<br />
most southerly tip of the UK mainland at Lizard<br />
Point. Watch the ships go by and the turbulent<br />

Bottlenose, Common and Risso dolphins and<br />
mighty basking sharks can all be spotted in the<br />
wide bay off the beach at Coverack, a renowned<br />
playground for aquatic mammals.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 3,000 year old monument of Men-an-Tol<br />
is said to have healing properties, and that by<br />
passing through the granite slab’s hole nine times<br />
a multitude of aches and pains will be cured.<br />
At Levant Mine, a few miles from Land’s End, is<br />
the only Cornish beam engine in the world that<br />
is still in steam on its original mine site.<br />
Discover the art and heritage of West <strong>Cornwall</strong><br />
at Penlee House Gallery and Museum in<br />

Buffeted by Atlantic waves, <strong>Cornwall</strong>’s North Coast is<br />
a seventy-mile expanse of cliffs, bays, beaches and<br />
clusters of seaside villages and towns. A big draw for<br />
water sports enthusiasts, it’s equally appealing for all<br />
kinds of holiday.<br />
North<br />
Rounding the corner from the Penwith Peninsula and<br />
heading east, the coastline is exposed to the full force of<br />
the Atlantic. In Portreath the harbour wall helps to shape<br />
a perfect surfing wave known as ‘<strong>The</strong> Vortex’. In contrast,<br />
the concealed beach at Chapel Porth, just a couple of<br />
miles further along, provides the perfect spot to relax while<br />
listening to the roar of the sea. Inland at St Agnes you’ll<br />
find quaint shops and pubs, and the town makes a good<br />
starting point for exploring parts of the coastal footpath.<br />
<strong>The</strong> three miles of golden sand, big surf and<br />
pretty sand dunes make popular Perranporth<br />
a great example of the fantastic beaches to<br />
be found on the North Coast. Walk the beach,<br />
relax on the sand or grab a drink in one of the<br />
beachside cafés. If you’re after something<br />
a little quieter Crantock beach, on the River<br />
Gannel estuary, is a lovely spot for a picnic.<br />
COAST<br />
Newquay, perhaps one of the best-known destinations<br />
in the county and proud surf capital of Britain, is a<br />
wonderful mix of vibrant resort and beautiful scenery.<br />
<strong>The</strong> town is brimming with shops, cafes and restaurants,<br />
and is considered to be the cultural and festival centre of<br />
<strong>Cornwall</strong>, while its beaches are some of the finest around.<br />
Head to nearby Watergate Bay, where at the<br />
Extreme Academy you can learn all manner of<br />
water sports, while the gentle waves at Mawgan<br />
Porth make it a perfect place to learn to surf.<br />
High on the cliffs, the views from the top of<br />
Bedruthan Steps are spectacular, and equally<br />
breath taking is the crescent shaped beach at<br />
Harlyn Bay. Inland on the Camel River estuary,<br />
Wadebridge provides for all your retail needs, be<br />
they picnic treats, general provisions or surf gear.<br />
Renowned for its fashionable shops and eateries,<br />
Padstow is a lovely place to spend the day. Take<br />
the ferry across to Rock and enjoy both sides<br />
of this beautiful estuary. Perfect conditions at<br />
Polzeath make it a surfer’s paradise, popular with<br />
both participants and spectators. Many of the<br />
little seaside towns along this stretch of coast are<br />
well worth visiting, such as Trebarwith Strand,<br />
formerly a port for shipping the area’s abundant<br />
slate. Tintagel, steeped in Arthurian legend, is<br />
home to Merlin’s Cave and the stunning ruins of<br />
a 13th Century castle, said to be the birthplace of<br />
King Arthur.<br />

HIGHLIGHTS<br />
Delabole’s 600-year-old slate quarry boasts the<br />
largest man-made hole in Europe, which plunges<br />
400 feet down into solid rock and measures a<br />
mile and a half in circumference.<br />
Messages and offerings are left on rock ledges at<br />
the sixty-foot waterfall at St Nectan’s Glen, a place<br />
of spiritual healing since pre-Christian times.<br />
Fabulous views, rolling fairways and firm<br />
greens all help to make St Enodoc near Rock<br />
one of the finest links golf courses in the UK,<br />
earning it the ranking of 55th in the world.<br />
<strong>The</strong> five and a half mile stretch of the Camel Trail<br />
between Wadebridge to Padstow is best enjoyed<br />
by bike (available to hire at either end).<br />
Climb the highest cliff in <strong>Cornwall</strong> near<br />
the strangely named Strangles Beach<br />
between Bude and Boscastle, towering<br />
at an impressive 742 feet.<br />
<strong>The</strong> award-winning Camel Valley Vineyard near<br />
Wadebridge offers a fascinating tasting tour.<br />
With its charming harbour and traditional<br />
fisherman’s cottages, Boscastle’s setting is<br />
hard to beat, while at Crackington Haven the<br />
famous colourful chevron rock formations<br />
start to appear creating a small cove. Near the<br />
border with Devon, Bude combines spectacular<br />
beaches, great surf and an attractive town to<br />
form a welcoming seaside resort.<br />

wild and rugged Bodmin Moor and the<br />
lush green hills of <strong>The</strong> Tamar Valley.<br />
AND THE<br />
TAMAR VALLEY<br />
BODMIN MOOR AND THE TAMAR VALLEY<br />
One hundred and fifty square miles of beautiful, wind<br />
swept moorland provides the setting for excellent walks<br />
and boundless opportunities to uncover just what makes<br />
this area such a treasure. <strong>The</strong> importance of the moor<br />
has earned it a number of designations including an Area<br />
of Outstanding Natural Beauty and World Heritage Site<br />
status in recognition of its 4,000-year-old tin mining<br />
industry. Most of the moor has been declared a Site of<br />
Special Scientific Interest.<br />
Liskeard, a busy market town, lies at the gateway to the moor<br />
a few miles inland from the South Coast. Here 19th Century<br />
buildings give a glimpse of the town’s prosperous past, once<br />
a centre for the mining industry. Beyond, hallmarks of human<br />
habitation in a wild land that stretch back 6,000 years include<br />
burial chambers, ancient stones and holy wells, like the fine<br />
example at the village of St Cleer. Made famous by Daphne du<br />
Maurier’s novel, the Jamaica Inn at Bolventor is an imposing<br />
sight in a bleak landscape. Just one of the historical wonders<br />
to be found in the area, a 12th Century church at Temple<br />
was originally built by the Knights Templers for travellers<br />
on pilgrimage to Ireland. <strong>The</strong> town of Bodmin is a good spot<br />
to base yourself to explore the surrounding area, and is also<br />
the starting point of the Camel Trail cycle trail that leads all<br />
the way to Padstow. Five miles away, the village of Blisland<br />
has a fine Norman church, pretty stone houses and<br />
award-winning pub on the village green from where you<br />
can access the edge of the moor.<br />

<strong>The</strong> ancient Cornish<br />
capital of Launceston on<br />
the edge of the moor,<br />
with its narrow streets<br />
and 1000-year-old<br />
castle, offers a good<br />
selection of shops, a<br />
market in the town<br />
square and some<br />
delightful art galleries.<br />
Nearby, Hallworthy’s<br />
busy market is bursting<br />
with local produce<br />
and weekly livestock<br />
auctions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> sheltered setting and<br />
gentle climate of the Tamar<br />
Valley allows for a rich and<br />
diverse vegetation and<br />
it’s easy to see why it has<br />
been designated an Area<br />
of Outstanding Natural<br />
Beauty. Lying on the banks<br />
of the slow moving Tamar<br />
River, the picturesque<br />
village of Calstock hosts<br />
a multitude of fairs,<br />
festivals and art exhibitions<br />
throughout the year. <strong>The</strong><br />
area’s prosperous farming<br />
heritage can still be enjoyed<br />
through an amazing array<br />
of produce such as fresh<br />
vegetables, soft fruits and<br />
flowers that are often sold<br />
on the roadside, and at<br />
Cothele House you can<br />
learn about the area’s<br />
historic commerce in<br />
a fascinating museum.<br />
This stunning estuary is<br />
a haven for wildlife and is<br />
best appreciated from the<br />
water on a boat trip or even<br />
explored by canoe.

<strong>The</strong> M4, M5 and M6 motorways have<br />
made travel to <strong>Cornwall</strong> simple and<br />
straightforward, while within <strong>Cornwall</strong><br />
itself, the two major holiday routes, the<br />
A30 and A38 continue to improve, with<br />
fast dual carriageways as far as Carland<br />
Cross, Mitchell, and most of the way to<br />
Penzance. Follow the M5 to Exeter, after<br />
which you will take either the A30 or A38<br />
into <strong>Cornwall</strong>, depending on your final<br />
destination. Alternatively, if you enter<br />
<strong>Cornwall</strong> via North Devon, then there is the<br />
Atlantic Highway, the A39, which you can<br />
join at junction 27 on the M5.<br />
