Local Area
Polzeath on Cornwall's attractive northern
coastline is famous for its magnificent beach. Vast Atlantic
rollers roll across the mouth of the Camel Estuary,
creating a surfer's paradise, whilst the large expanses of
fine sand, makes Polzeath the ideal family beach.
As a bonus, there is the breathtaking scenery
provided by the cliffs that run from Pentire to Port Quinn,
Port Isaac and beyond to Clovelly in North Devon - wonderful
and in some stretches, challenging, walking country,
full of wildlife and stunning vistas for you to enjoy.
For the more energetic The National Trust
land at Pentire is an extensive carpet of wild flowers,
at its best in the spring. Visitors can explore and enjoy
the rich network of footpaths with the most spectacular scenery.
To the west, the Camel Estuary, has
a softer landscape, with, long stretches of sandy beaches
and a gentle shoreline that stretches into the distance
The Camel Estuary, is a major attraction of the North Cornish
coast. The tidal waters stretch from the mouth of the estuary
some five miles south towards Wadebridge and up to a mile
wide between Rock and Padstow -providing a calm, sheltered
expanse of water protected from the Atlantic ocean by Stepper
Point, Pentire point and the sand bar at the mouth of the
estuary, creating ideal conditions for all varieties of water
sports.
Visitors can hire bicycles from Padstow
and cycle along the level Camel Trail cycle route to Wadebridge
(an 11 mile round trip - the more adventurous can chose
to continue on past towards Bodmin). The journey takes you
along the shoreline of the estuary, providing you with a wealth
of opportunities to stop and watch the local wildlife (badgers,
rabbits, herons, cattle egrets, swans and wading birds of
all types). The trip is an easy introduction to the pleasures
of cycling, with many seats along the route to stop and admire
the view. Pleasure, fishing and bird watching trips are available
from nearby Rock and Padstow.
Rock is a small but very popular little
hamlet with long stretches of find sandy beaches washed by
the tidal waters of the Camel estuary. Rock is one of the
major watersports centres in Cornwall - sailing, windsurfing,
water skiing, canoeing and rowing are all activities which
can be carried on in the relatively calm and safe waters of
the estuary. During daylight hours, the Black Tor ferry runs
a regular service from Rock across the estuary to Padstow,
with a Water Taxi available for late night "revellers".
Daymer
Bay and Trebetherick have a huge appeal set in the heart
of Betjeman country, with wide open spaces where you
can be at one with nature. St. Enodoc Church, once
buried in the sand, within walking distance of the beach at
Daymer, provides the final resting place of Sir John Betjeman.
Daymer Bay is a windsurfers paradise - for
the waves rolling up the estuary and for the calmer waters
off Rock - yet there is enormous appeal too for small children
with buckets and spades. The beach has a large car park with
facilities, (café, shop and toilets). There is golf to be
enjoyed at nearby St. Enodoc and Roserrow.
The coastal footpath between Polzeath and
St. Enodoc is suitable for wheelchair users - a rare chance
for the less fortunate to be able to appreciate the stunning
scenery of the headlands and estuary.
Padstow on the western shoreline of
the camel estuary, is an attractive hamlet neatly tucked away
into a narrow gully, sheltered from the prevailing South -
West winds. Buildings crowd together around the harbour, forming
a jumble of houses, quays, slipways, cafes, restaurants and
gift shops. Padstow is home to the world famous Rick Stein's
seafood restaurant and the National Lobster Hatchery.
