Along the trail is interesting bird life popular with bird watchers and conveniently situated hides along the way. Towards Bodmin you can sample some of the locally made wine at the Camel Valley Vineyard.
Bodmin is a thriving town. You can pay a visit to Bodmin prison which is now a museum, a visit not for the faint hearted. Around the area many of the scenes from Poldark were filmed in particular at St Breward and Blisland. Daphne Du Mauriers famous Jamaica Inn is situated on Bodmin moor.
Padstow is a working harbour where you can take the ferry across to Rock. You can also go on boat trips around the estuary to spot wildlife or go on an exhilarating speed boat ride.
There are shops, cafes, galleries where you can buy the local arts and crafts. It’s worth a visit to the Michelin starred restaurants of Rick Stein where you can sample the fresh catch of the day.

Famous chef Nathan Outlaw has a restaurant at St Enodoc hotel. Along the coast from Rock is Daymer Bay which is a lovely beach for young families and also welcomes dogs.
Behind Daymer Bay is St Enodoc church, a picturesque place which is the final resting place of Sir John Betjemen. The St Enodoc Golf course is also situated here.
Along the cliff top you can walk to Polzeath which is a popular surfing beach. You can hire surfing gear, arrange surfing lessons or take a trip Costeering around the cliffs. There are useful facilities, cafes and shops here too.
The quaint working fishing village of Port Isaac is not too far away and is worth a visit. Again this is a popular tourist spot with people wanting to visit where the TV series Doc Martin is filmed. The cliff top walks around Port Isaac are highly recommended.
