On the banks of the River Camel in the heart of North Cornwall, Wadebridge is a busy hub of activity. The old market town is filled with independent shops, cafes, restaurants and supermarkets, and boasts a busy calendar of events, from the weekly local produce market to Cornwall Folk Festival and the Royal Cornwall Show.
The best thing about holidays in Wadebridge is how easy it is to reach North Cornwall’s beautiful sandy beaches and old fishing villages. Within a short drive you can reach Polzeath, famous for its surf, the exclusive seaside village of Rock - home of the rich and famous, picturesque Port Isaac and its white-washed fisherman’s cottages, the mystical ruins of Tintagel Castle and stunning Bodmin Moor. You’ll be spoilt for choice for days at the beach, with Daymer Bay, Constantine, Trebarwith Strand and many more sandy bays and tiny coves, all within 10 miles.
North Cornwall is fast becoming a foodie hotspot, so you could spend every day of your holiday in Wadebridge trying somewhere new. Head to Padstow for Rick Stein’s famous fish and chips or fine dining at The Seafood Restaurant, try Michelin star Outlaw’s Fish Kitchen in Port Isaac, run by celebrity chef Nathan Outlaw, or treat yourself at Paul Ainsworth @ No6.
But Wadebridge’s most famous feature is the Camel Trail, which winds its way along the edge of the Camel Estuary for 18 miles, from Padstow all the way to Bodmin Moor. No holiday in Wadebridge is complete without cycling or setting off on foot along this famous trail. It’s traffic-free, surfaced and relatively level the whole way, so it’s great from families. Dog-walkers, and all ages and abilities. We recommend hiring bikes in Wadebridge and setting off to Padstow where you’ll be treated with stunning coastal views and plenty of places to pick up a pasty as a reward when you arrive.
Discover beautiful North Cornwall and all it has to offer when you book a holiday in Wadebridge.
Whilst there is no private parking for the cottage, there are a choice of short and long stay car parks close by. Council owned Goldsworthy Way Car Park (short stay) is just at the end of the lane and Piggy Lane car park a little further on behind the fire station is a long stay car park.

Camel Trail
(Less than a mile)
(2)
Perfect for cycling, the Camel Trail is an 18-mile largely traffic free, surfaced and virtually level, multi-use trail that you can use to explore the Cornish countryside. The track brings back to life a disused railway line that runs between Wenfordbridge, Bodmin and Padstow. It's ideal for bicycles, wheelchair users, horse riders and walkers, and is broken down into three main sections set up to around six miles each, which is probably more manageable than the total 18 miles, on an average day at least! It's free to use, bike hire is available at Padstow, Wadebridge, Bodmin and Wendfordbridge and toilets are in situ along the trail and in Padstow town centre.
Flat 6 miles walk from Wadebridge to Padstow (or Padstein as we called it!). Plenty to look at but no facilities, there was a closed cafe 2 miles short of Padstow. Lots of cyclists so listen out for them.

Rock Beach
(5 miles)
(1)
Rock beach is a beautiful long white sand beach located on the mouth of the Camel Estuary. This Area of Outstanding natural beauty is a haven for wading birds and the prefect spot for a swim in the clear blue waters or a picnic admiring the fantastic views. The beach is backed by sand dunes, please try to avoid walking on the dunes and keep to the footpaths where provided as there has been a huge amount of erosion in recent years. Dogs are welcome on the beach all year round and there is easy access to shops and all facilities including public toilets. Parking can be found in the car park just behind and access is via a ferry slipway or steps.
What a fabulous beach, dog friendly all year, when the tide is out the beach is huge, our dogs had a brilliant time. The car park is reasonable priced and toilets were clean.
September 2021
Daymer Bay
(5 miles)
(1)
Located on the East side of the River Camel. Sand and dunes. Dog friendly.
Let's tackle the two downsides first. The narrow single track lane descending to the car park ican be challenging at busy times. The other one - the sheltered position means no waves for boarding. Great sandy beach, safe for kids with a good size car park and easy access down to the sands. Great views over the Doom Bar. Easy to walk down to Rock Beach and St Enodoc's church is worth a visit.
July 2022
Port Quin
(6 miles)
(1)
A rocky beach in a narrow, sheltered cove, Port Quin Beach is close to Port Isaac, and is only accessible at low tide. Its rugged landscape is beautiful to see, but its location means that it’s largely popular with seasoned walkers and those looking to go snorkeling and kayaking. Unspoiled and peaceful, it reveals a treasure trove of rock pools when the tide is out, and the nearby village is largely deserted, having once had thriving fishing and mining industries. Today both the cove and the village are owned by the National Trust and there is a car park courtesy of them in Port Quin. Dogs are banned between Easter and October, and there aren’t any facilities nearby – it’s all about enjoying the peace and quiet.
Could park nearby and enjoyed a cream tea from the 'Salt Pig' van in the carpark. Paddled here and ran the dog one evening, and walked a bit more of the coast path.
September 2019
Port Isaac Beach
(6 miles)
(2)
Since the arrival of Doc Martin on the small screen, Port Isaac has soared in popularity, and the pretty little village with the historic harbour, which also serves as the beach, has become instantly recognisable. Still an active fishing village with crab pots scattered about, the sand stretches between twin piers at low tide and has a small stream and lots of rock pools to explore, so it’s ideal for children. Dogs are allowed on the beach all year round, and as it’s at the centre of the village there’s easy access to shops and all facilities including public toilets. The car park for the town is a 10-minute walk away, and while there are a couple of parking spaces on the beach itself, just make sure you park above the high water mark, or keep an eagle eye on the tide!
Lovely setting worth a look,dog friendly.
July 2022
Worth a visit, about half a mile walk from the car park, the return journey is quite steep but there is a shuttle taxi for those less able to manage the walk. Beautiful little harbour beach and of course doc Martin’s surgery. We ate in the hotel beer garden, food and drink was nice and reasonable priced.
September 2021
Port Gaverne
(6 miles)
(3)
A sheltered beach on the north Cornwall coast, Port Gaverne Beach is in a narrow cove just east of Port Isaac. It’s comprised of sand and shingle with lots of rock pools to explore at low tide. In the summer months it can get quite busy given the popularity of the location and its suitability for families. Surrounding walks along the cliff path are delightful and at high tide the beach is favoured by divers. There’s also a slipway and it’s sometimes used to launch boats because of the easy access from the road. Thanks to it proximity to Port Isaac half a mile away facilities and restaurants are nearby, and the beach welcomes dogs all year round. You can also park in the village although there is limited road parking by the beach itself.
Lovely little cove and nice walk to headland. Water activities available.

beautiful and great fish and chips !

Excellent place to run the dog at sunset. Good walk on teh headland too. Could park right next to the beach.
