Camelford Cottages
Although the town hall has a weather vane in the shape of a golden
camel, this attractive town has
no associations whatsoever
with camels! However, it is steeped in history and legend
and makes a great base for touring north Cornwall.
Situated on the River Camel at the edge of Bodmin Moor, this collection of
Camelford cottages are perfect for lovers of the countryside, with
miles of way-marked paths all around. Walk, cycle or ride along the
Camel Trail to Padstow. Or
head to the coast, just six miles away, and walk the South West
Coastal Path, gateway to amazing seascapes and pretty fishing
villages like Boscastle and
Tintagel. And if a wet suit's more your style, expect
sensational surfing on sandy beaches stretching as far as
the eye can see.
Attractions near your Camelford cottage
Explore the wild landscapes of Bodmin Moor littered with
fascinating ancient relics. Sort out fact from fiction at the
Arthurian Centre, a great day out for all the
family with special events, brass rubbing, nature trail, play
castle and more. Fish for your Camelford cottage supper at Crowdy
Reservoir. Or plan your stay around the Camelford
Agricultural Show, a traditional country show attracting
locals and visitors alike.
Back in town, you'll find museums, galleries, historic
buildings like Bridge House and the Mason's Arms, an arts
centre, theatre and shows at Clease Hall, plus a good choice of
shops, restaurants, tearooms and so on.
In fact, there's plenty to please everyone on a
Camelford cottage holiday!
