Cornish
Villages
Port
Isaac is a charming harbour village which is well known
for the Doc Martin series. It has white washed
cottages which crowd the narrow streets and alley
ways (one is so narrow that it is affectionately
called Squeezeebelly Alley!) Fishing and scenic
trips can be taken from the harbour.
The
picturesque village of Boscastle with its
distinctive harbour is one of the most romantic
places in Cornwall. It is steeped in history and
has inspired many with its ruggedness and unspoilt
beauty.
Drive
to Rock and you can take a ferry ride to the busy fishing harbour at
Padstow. Enjoy the beautiful views, or
indulge in a bit of retail therapy. Eat a pasty
overlooking the harbour or have a fine dining
experience at one of Rick Stein's eateries. |
