Cornish Coasteering

The most fun you can have in a wetsuit! Coasteering is everything you always wanted to do at the seaside when you were a kid but were not allowed! Swim, scramble, climb and jump your way around the cliffs and rocky foreshore. Gain a unique perspective of this stunning stretch of Cornish coastline under the watchful eye of our experienced guides. Coasteering is awesome!

St. Enodoc Golf Course

Considered to be one of the best golf clubs in the west of England, St. Enodoc offers two 18-hole courses with magnificent views.

Reviewed By Moorsey14 - High Wycombe, United Kingdom

We were a 16 strong group of golfers from Herts, with varying h caps, that had played 4 other courses on tour nearby. We are seasoned travellers in respect of playing courses here in the UK & also abroad. 16 resounding plaudits cannot be wrong and in our eyes one of the best courses we have tried to play. We were smiled on by the sun so some of the stunning views were even more so and make sure your camera phone is charged! A welcoming pro shop and bar staff got the day of to a good start and the very very helpful starter who gave us some extra info on the 1st tee and managed to find me on the course to help with my camera!! Lovely club house and food. A real must on your agenda if your in the area but take a couple of extra balls!!

Daymer Bay Beach

Reviewed By NeilE_12 - Saint Wenn, United Kingdom

Even on a blustery cold day, an absolute pleasure. Plenty of parking, not free so dont forget to pay and display, though its a narrow approach so expect to do some shuffling round in season. Im pretty sure most people can accommodate that! Regardless, beautiful beach, we hit it when the tide was way out so had the choice of directions to wander, opting for the Polzeath direction. If you take the coast path its a couple of miles to Polzeath and a cuppa!! Lovely wide open beach at low tide with great views. Of note, or at least we enjoyed seeing it, were the striped rocks. Super colours, what amazing things nature gives us! Overall a good couple of hours out, though longer could be spent quite easily. Dog friendly, and as with all Cornwalls great beaches please pick up after your dog and keep it this way. Thanks!!

Bridge Bike Hire

Reviewed By mashy2008

We have visited this area numerous times over the last 11 years and always make a beeline for Bridge Bike Hire in Wadebridge for our holiday bikes. Everything about this place shouts professionalism from the advance booking procedure (and in previous years, pre-Covid, being able to book on the day), helpful staff, the current hygiene and socially distanced bike hire and return procedure, great quality and standard of bikes and helmets right thru to the puncture repair kit. The location of Bridge Bike Hire is perfect, right alongside the camel trail (with coffee shop, toilets, supermarket and parking at the rear plus new picnic area). No need to cross the busy road - you just get your bike and straight onto the trail (either towards Padstow or Bodmin). This really is a great place that year on year seems to improve its service and the practicalities of bike hire. Will definitely be back to hire again

Bike Smart Cycle Hire Wadebridge

A family run business hiring bikes and accessories for the Camel Trail in Wadebridge. We also offer free onsite parking for our customers when hiring two or more bikes.

Reviewed By W3084BRemilym - London, United Kingdom

We were recommended to try this company and do the Wadebridge - Padstow bike ride by some friends. The company were excellent - I pre-booked and all the bikes were ready when we arrived. The young man helping us couldn’t have been more helpful adjusting seats and inflating tyres, as well as helping us decide between a ride along bike or a trailer for my son. We had amazing W weather and one of our best family days out on our Cornwall holiday. We will definitely use again and highly recommend!
