Welcome

Davidstow Moor RAF Memorial Museum 0.5 miles A small but incredible museum housing unique archives, including personal stories, detailing the history of RAF Davidstow Moor. Well worth a visit on a cooler day.

A former RAF station used during WWII. A great open space for a peaceful walk that also has an enclosed wooded area for dogs if sheep are grazing on the airfield.

Renowned for it’s delicious fish and chips Camelford has electric car charging, fuel, Boots pharmacy, a Post Office and a well stocked Co-op.

A great beach for a walk when the tide is low or nearly low, the stream carves new and interesting paths across the beach daily.

A designated Bodmin Moor and International Dark Sky Landscape, the moor is a perfect peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the seaside.

A picturesque coastal town with stunning rugged coastline, the National Trust’s Old Post Office and of course English Heritage’s famous castle.

Boscastle is a tiny attractive port with a natural harbour, set in a narrow ravine. Much of the land is owned by the National Trust. Try the Cornish Tapas.

One of my favourite towns with a sea pool, indoor Leisure Centre and beautiful beaches and good roads to the car park.

Cardinham Woods near Bodmin has stream-side paths, a cafe, picnic tables, cycle paths and stunning viewpoints. The signposted walks range from 1.5 - 4 miles. This is a perfect place to visit on a really hot day as you can find shade under the canopy of the trees in the forest or by the stream. There are a couple of free-standing picnic tables that visitors often move into the shade of the trees by the stream.

This walk starts at Polzeath and takes you past Greenaway Beach, along Daymer Bay by the Doom Bar (sand!) and across the dunes to Rock. If you have the energy you could take a ferry from Rock across to Padstow for a bite of lunch before heading back the way you came. You could take a different route returning via St Enodoc Church where the poet laureate Sir John Betjeman is buried.

Starting from Bude this is a gentle, accessible walk alongside the canal up to Helebridge where you can stop for a bite to eat at the Weir Cafe before making the return journey back along the canal. If you want to make this a circular route continue as per the map here, and apart from a low hill between the canal and the Coast Path, this is a lovely flat walk, with no stiles and spectacular views.

The famous 18 miles, flat trail running from Wenfordbridge to Padstow primarily known as a cycle route but also a popular walking destination. For dog owners, you may find the Bodmin and Wenfordbridge leg of the path may be slightly quieter, as the Wadebridge to Padstow route can get extremely busy and vexatious for both dogs and dog owners or you can hire a bike and dog trailer. Check out this Moor to Shore fun day out.
