Where to visit on your stay
We are located on the border between Cornwall and Devon, providing an ideal base to explore both counties.
The site is adjacent to our beautiful woodland and lakes which are available exclusively for the use and enjoyment of Caravan and Motorhome Club members. We have spent the past 25 years creating a natural wildlife haven around our ponds and lakes with plantings of azaleas, camellias, rhododendrons and conifers. In spring the woodland floor is carpeted with snowdrops, native daffodils and primroses followed by bluebells and red campion. For the avid bird watcher our resident wild birds include kingfisher, buzzard, kestrel, long tailed tit, tree-creeper, nuthatch and skylark to mention just a few.
National Trust
The surrounding countryside is ideal for walkers. Local National Trust properties include Cotehele House just ten minutes drive away, Antony House and Lanhydrock House. The Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, Mount Edgcumbe, The Garden House, Buckland Abbey, the home of Sir Francis Drake, Dartmoor and Bodmin Moors are easily reached.
