NORTH CORNWALL
The hamlet of Treveighan
is situated not far from St Teath which has
a good traditional pub serving excellent food, a general store/post office/off
licence, a newsagent and a church. Treveighan is historically an agricultural
community set in wonderful countryside and overlooking the river Allen
valley, an area of special scientific interest.
To the north east of the village lies the river
Camel valley and then the western slopes of
Bodmin moor. The Camel Trail
cycle and footpath are accessed at Poleys Bridge and run all the way to
Padstow.
Being about 450 ft above sea level the southerly view
from the Garden House on a clear day reaches right across Cornwall to
the south coast where the St Austell Clay Mountains pierce the horizon.
The dramatic and romantic north Cornwall coast is within
a few minutes drive to the west with many lovely little unspoilt covey
beaches, quaint fishing Harbours and unique places of interest such as
Boscastle, Tintagel and Port
Isaac, famous for its wonderful crab.
A little further afield about 15 miles are Rock
and Padstow for those wishing to join
the hussle and bussle of very busy tourist attractions and then return
to the comparative peace and tranquility of our environment (tractors
aside).
All but the furthest extremities of Cornwall can be reached
by car within an hour or so and Dartmoor in
Devon is but a 40 min journey. Wadebridge
is the local town for shopping or Camelford
might suffice. We have a farm butcher within walking distance who provides
the best beef and sausages in the entire world.
PORT ISAAC
Port Isaac is a 700 year old fishing village with quaint
cottages huddled together, some almost on top of each other. The narrow
streets and alleyways still have an air of intrigue reminiscent of the
days of smuggling and press gangs. In the village, you will find many
nooks and crannies such as "Squeezy Belly Alley" and "The Bloody Bones
Cellar", once used for storing contraband with a tunnel leading onto the
beach.
Port Isaac is set amidst rugged and magnificent scenery
on Cornwall's north coast. It has a strong community and lies in an area
of outstanding natural beauty with steep narrow lanes that exude a gallimaufry
of old world charm.
Walkers are rewarded with spectacular views, rugged cliffs
and secluded coves rich in flora and fauna, with wild flowers and lichen
growing among the rocks.
In more recent times, the village was used as the location
for the 'Doc Martin' TV series, as well as the location of several films
