The West Country / Cornwall region
Cornwall’s visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Or could it be the cliff-top theatre at Mynack, working harbours, the world famous Eden project or St Michaels Mount, cut off from the mainland by a causeway. Or even the endless activities on offer; the Camel Cycling and Walking Trail, stunning coastal paths or the National Surf Centre at Newquay’s Fistral beach. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain’s premier holiday destinations.
The Liskeard / East Taphouse area
Located on the A390 in the heart of the pretty Cornish countryside is the small village of East Taphouse. Ideally situated for exploring Devon and Cornwall, this pretty little settlement is within easy reach of the market towns of Liskeard and Lostwithiel, as well as the old fishing ports of Looe, Polperro and Fowey. The region is also home to a great number of excellent beaches and coves, whilst the rugged moor at Bodmin is only 10 minutes drive to the north. The magnificent tropical biodomes of the Eden Project are well worth visiting as are the National Trust properties of Lanhydrock and Mount Edgecombe houses. Also of interest in the local area is the town of Bodmin itself, offering a steam railway and the magnificent tall-ship harbour at Charlestown.

Guestbook for 1859 - Orchard Cottage
The cottage was an ideal base for visiting all the known and unknown places in Devon and Cornwall. Plus the cottage was ideal for dog owners as it had a fair sized paddock at the back. After our last visit 15-20 years ago it was nice to revisit Cornwall.

,I thought the cottage was just great as a base for everywhere in Cornwall. Fabulous for dogs too. Lovely welcome with milk, basic refreshments, very good parking and in an extremely quiet area. Generally one of the best self catering holidays for a long time!

,This was the 2nd year we had been to this cottage which speaks for itself. Friendly owners, good location and ideal for our 2 dogs - the cottage was somewhere you could live permanently!
