The West Country / Cornwall region
Situated on the Cornwall side of the Tamar River valley, but just a stone's throw from Devon, this is the perfect base to explore both counties. Cornwall is rich in history and culture with ancient stone circles, castles and stately homes, picturesque fishing villages and quaint churches. The coastline is truly spectacular with beaches providing top surfing destinations as well as idyllic coves for rockpooling and building sandcastles. Over the border into Devon, you can experience the rugged beauty of Dartmoor, the atmosphere of the local market towns and the hustle and bustle of the maritime city of Plymouth with its historic Barbican and Plymouth Hoe.
Callington / St Ann's Chapel area
If you just want to relax and unwind, Honicombe Manor Holiday Village is the perfect place. The surroundings are tranquil but there is also a range of on-site leisure facilities for all the family. Friday is market day in Tavistock, approximately 5 miles away. The Tamar Valley Donkey Park is a few minutes' walk from the Holiday Village and a lovely place to visit, particularly for the younger family members. You can take a stroll along the banks of the River Tamar to Calstock or enjoy a river cruise. The National Trust's Cotehele House is nearby and there are several good pubs and restaurants. The renowned Horn of Plenty Restaurant is a short drive from here.
How to get there
