Our stay at the FarmHouse was wonderful and the owners couldn’t have been more accommodating for various different reasons.

August 2024

We had a great time at the farmhouse, every thing was to hand, we didn’t need to ask for anything, large modern kitchen had everything we needed. The farmhouse has been well decorated and everything was clean and tidy when we arrived including fresh flowers ! We used the hot tub every night and was so good to relax in. The built in brick BBQ was great, our toddler played in the lovely playhouse. The WiFi was very fast. Michelle and Paul were lovely, nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely stay again !

Holidays in Wadebridge

Making the most of its picturesque location on the river Camel, the charming market town of Wadebridge is a captivating destination for a Cornish holiday.

The scenic town is popular with walkers and cyclists, with idyllic coastal and countryside walking and the Camel Trail cycle route on the doorstep. With some of Cornwall's most beautiful beaches just a short drive away and a fantastic selection of independent boutiques, art galleries, and eateries in the town itself, you’ll have everything you’ll need for a memorable holiday in Wadebridge.

Wadebridge also boasts a whopping events schedule with one of the biggest and best agricultural shows in the south west topping the line-up. Wadebridge is very dog-friendly too, thanks to the South West Coast Path offering excellent walkies, dog-friendly beaches, and a selection of superb local eateries welcoming every kind of patron – dog or human!

Top tip

Hire a bike and cycle the Camel Trail to Padstow and back.

Beaches in Wadebridge

Wadebridge might not be slap-bang on the Cornish coast, but it still enjoys a close proximity to some of North Cornwall’s most beautiful beaches.

Rock – Popular with locals, visitors, and even royals, Rock beach should be top of anyone’s list when visiting Wadebridge. Lie back and enjoy the view from the golden sands, venture into the waters for some refreshing fun, or hop on the water taxi and visit Padstow for a bite to eat and a wander!

Daymer Bay – Lined with dunes and sand hills, and dog-friendly all year round, Daymer Bay has become a popular haunt with families looking for somewhere to let the pack go wild. Although there are no lifeguards here, this sheltered bay is great for swimming, while Braey Hill provides a jaw-dropping place to soak up the surrounding views.

Polzeath – A good one for those wanting to try their hand at surfing, Polzeath combines sand and surf for maximum effect. Visiting this dog-friendly beach at low tide will reward you with an insane amount of sand to enjoy, perfect for some beachside ball games with the family.

Things to do in Wadebridge

Whether you fancy a bit of retail therapy or you want to swap the shore for the sea and head out on an exhilarating boat trip, there is much to see and do in Wadebridge during your stay.

The Camel Trail

Connecting Wadebridge, Padstow, and Bodmin, this scenic cycling trail has been created on the old railway line. The whole trail is 18 miles long and is totally traffic-free and quite level ground, making it ideal for every ability. Hire bikes in Wadebridge and cycle alongside the estuary to Padstow, or through countryside and woodland to Bodmin.

Walking

Wadebridge is home to Saints Way, a 16-mile cross-country walking route that was forged in ancient times by Celtic saints between Padstow and Fowey. The walk takes you past pretty creeks and villages, and through the ancient town of Lostwithiel. Bodmin Moor and the South West Coast Path are also nearby, both of which are fantastic for walking and well worth an exploration or two.

Boat trips & Watersports

The river Camel estuary is a playground for activities on the water, with boat trips running between Padstow and Rock, speedboat tours, and watersport lessons and hire. You can have a go at stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking, water-skiing, or banana boating, which is exactly as fun as it sounds!

Shopping

Wander the streets of Wadebridge and you'll be spoilt for choice with independent shops, boutiques, and galleries - not to mention a cracking line up of antiques shops. Pop into Winifred and Mabel for some handmade gifts, Quirky Boutique for a new look, or Wadebridge Bookshop for something to read on the beach. And if you’re looking for a one-stop-shop for all your retail needs, a trip to Hawksfield is a Cornish must, which boasts clothing, art galleries, eateries, and even vintage vehicles!

Further afield, there's Rick Stein's, Paul Ainsworth at Number 6, and Rojano's Italian restaurant in Padstow, as well as a fabulous range of seafood restaurants in Rock and Port Isaac.

Dog-friendly Wadebridge

When it comes to dog-friendly places in Cornwall, you really can’t beat Wadebridge. Rock beach and Daymer Bay are both dog-friendly, and the surrounding coastline is perfect for some seaside walkies. Or, if it’s food you’re after, you can head to The Ship Inn, Craftworks, and The Pearl and Trawl, which all welcome dogs and their well-behaved owners.

What's on in Wadebridge

Whether your tastes lie in foodie feasts, musical marvels, or massive agricultural extravaganzas, Wadebridge has an events roster that’s got something for everyone.

The Royal Cornwall Show

Taking place every June, the Royal Cornwall Show is the biggest agricultural show in Cornwall (and arguably the south west). The showground comes to life with live music, crafts, falconry, trade and food stalls, a fairground, and much more – not to mention a menagerie of animals big and small.

Rock Oyster Festival

Combining food, live music, and wellness, the Rock Oyster Festival is a must-do event in Cornwall for anyone wanting to please your tastebuds, ears, and soul all at once.

Cornwall Folk Festival

Taking over the whole town, the Cornwall Folk Festival brings together a variety of performers and styles from all over the world, filling up a whole host of venues including an entire street dedicated to everyone’s favourite foot-stomping tunes, sea shanties!

Getting around

With a train station, plenty of buses, and even the odd water taxi, you can certainly leave the car behind during your holiday in Wadebridge. Of course, if you want to travel further afield to explore the hidden coves along the north coast, there are car parks by all the major beaches in the area as well as throughout the town itself.

The property was better than expected, everyone all said how comfortable the beds were. There was everything within the house that made it feel homely. As already described and mentioned, the driveway to the farmhouse is very bumpy and rocky not suitable for low cars. Although don’t let this stop you from booking your holiday at the farmhouse.

The farmhouse is not that far away from Padstow and Rock and other surrounding areas such as Bude as Bude sea pool is a definite to visit.

We had a fabulous stay at the farmhouse. The hosts were so welcoming, and the location is great, very quiet with lots of land for the children to explore. Would thoroughly recommend and would stay again in an instant. Thank you.

We had a great time at the Farmhouse, the grounds are spacious and great for anyone with a dog. It was extremely well equipped, everything you would want or need.

Charmingly well kept property with lots of open space for kids and dogs alike. The hot tub was a big hit after long days exploring what Cornwall has to offer. Excellent hosts were happy to help the couple of times we had queries.

Every member of my family loves the farmhouse. The house, the garden, the hot tub, the playhouse … Like our kids said: it feels like home. We had a fantastic holiday in a fantastic location.

The Farmhouse is a beautiful property in a fantastic location. It suited us perfectly and offered amazing opportunities to explore more of Cornwall. The property is set well back from the (very quiet) road and surrounded by open space. Our little dog loved being able to run around, and we appreciated knowing he was 100% safe.

Inside, the house was perfectly clean and very well equipped. The owners left some very thoughtful local delicacies on our arrival which was so kind. We'd followed another guest recommendation and booked a supermarket delivery for our first evening which meant we could relax completely on arrival.

We loved visiting the local beaches and were happy to find all allowed out dog to walk off lead, however it is worth checking during the summer months. We visited early May.

We also loved the Bodkin steam train & Rock ferry with a day exploring Padstow. The owners, Michelle & Paul were very kind to recommend lots of great stuff that suited us perfectly.

We were especially thankful to Michelle & Paul who stepped in to help us when I tripped and broke my wrist. Two very cool heads got us packed up, bandaged up and off to A&E. They even, very kindly sat with our distressed wee spaniel which was totally above and beyond.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience and we are already planning another stay at The Farmhouse for late 2024.

Michelle and Paul are the most friendly hosts, thank you again for having us. We really enjoyed our visit to Cornwall and your lovely Farmhouse proved to be the most perfect base for exploring the region. The house breaths cozyness and had all the things to make our stay super comfortabel. Our three kids went out and about in de secure garden and loved playing in the playhouse. We sincerely recommend The Farmhouse for a family vacation.

Michelle & Paul were great hosts, very helpful and caring. Nothing too much trouble, checked in to see if all okay and even dropped round emergency food supplies for us, having arrived late at night and the supermarkets were closed the next day due to Easter Sunday. Absolutely spot on and nothing but praise for them both. When we needed advice on getting our sick child to local hospital, I received a very detailed message of what to do and where to go. The farmhouse is beautiful and easy to feel at home straight away, the surroundings are fantastic with plenty of space for the dogs and kids to explore and enjoy. We would definitely choose to come back.

We enjoyed a wonderful winter break at The Farmhouse. The house itself is extremely comfortable and well equipped, the addition of Christmas decorations made it feel even more like a home from home. The two young children of the group loved the playhouse and climbing frame. We would definitely recommend.

Our second stay in the Farmhouse didn’t disappoint, we had lots of beach and country walks and even woke one morning to a snow covered landscape which was magical. We were made very welcome and were very comfy and warm through the cold snap. It was a truly wonderful holiday.

We spent two weeks during the October half-term at the Farmhouse. Michelle and Paul, who live next door, are perfect hosts. They made us very welcome and were extremely friendly and helpful. The Farmhouse is so comfortable, everything you need is there. It is very much a home from home. The children loved the outside space and we made use of the walks around the lake and a bit of fishing. The views were lovely, longer walks directly from the Farmhouse are great. The children found a box of farm buildings and animals and didn't want to leave them - Christmas sorted. The Farmhouse is only around 25mins from some very lovely beaches. We were able to watch some great waves and surfing. Constantine Bay Beach was a favourite. This is a truly lovely place to stay, the children found the bumpy road funny, all part of the adventure. We also had some great weather. I would highly recommend The Farmhouse and I will certainly return.

Patricia, Sean, Catherine, Margot and Arlo - Luna and Mai our dogs.

What a gem! We had an amazing stay at the Farmhouse, it was perfect from start to finish! Nothing was too much trouble for the owners who live next door and they made it extra special with the chilled Prosecco, Cornish shortbread and fresh flowers on arrival. The farmhouse is in a beautiful location and is only a short distance from some amazing beaches including Mawgan Porth & Polzeath. It’s brilliant for adults, children and dogs! We will be returning to the farmhouse I’m sure and would 100% recommend.

Beautiful location for peace and quiet

Amazing home, amazing location, the view and surroundings were beautiful and the perfect place if you have big dogs like we do. There is so much space and greenery for them to enjoy. The hosts were some of the best hosts we’ve had, they made us feel like it was our home. Fantastic place and people, honestly couldn’t recommend it enough

We had a perfect stay at The Farmhouse. It´s a loveley place, perfect for children and soule. We want to thank the owner for the great time!

We had a lovely time at The Farmhouse. It had everything we needed and beautifully decorated and so peaceful. The hot tub was an added bonus which our daughters loved. We would definitely recommend.

Mrs Thomas

We had a wonderful week staying at The Farmhouse. Attention to detail was second to none - especially for our Labrador Molly! Paul and Michelle were excellent hosts, nothing too much trouble. Would highly recommend.

The Farmhouse is sat above Wadebridge with great views out to the coast and beyond. Lots of fields and a small lake to discover for you and your four legged friends. Inside it met our expectations and more. Spacious, clean and well equipped from the kitchen to living areas to the bedrooms. Lovely bed linen and towels. Everything was thought about with everything to hand, including a wine chiller :)

The immediate garden area was well cared for with a wood fired hot tub amply supplied with bags of timber and a great BBQ area. It was wonderful to sit in the hot tub and look up at the evening sky with swifts darting back and fore. Heaven.

A week of bodyboarding, boat trips at Fowey, cycling on the camel trail and eating the best fish and chips at Rock. Wonderful.

The owners, Michelle and Paul were always on hand, if needed, and gave us a warm welcome on arrival and when we were leaving. A wonderful couple who care about your experience at Pawton Springs. Hope to return in the future.

Fantastic property! The enclosed rear garden great for kids and dogs. Especially liked the the little cubby house for kids and play area. The hot tub is great and gets very hot. Loved being in front of the wood burner in the evening when it was raining. Everything was thought of by the owners, there was milk and Prosecco bottle on arrival. Towels, washing up liquid, toilet tissues all provided. The property was clean and the owners were right next door if anything needed. Lovely couple so friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend.

A great place for a family trip, our little one loved the playhouse in the garden! It was peaceful and the grounds are great to explore. Although the long track to the house can be extremely bumpy, which made us think twice about 'popping out'. Most places of interest we visited were approx. 25 mins drive, so a good location for lots of outings in beautiful north Cornwall. Michelle and Steve were really friendly and helpful!

Best UK stay we have had! The Farmhouse is absolutely beautiful, the pictures do not do it justice. It is full of character, beautifully decorated. It's so light and spacious. The garden is so perfect for younger children, the wooden Wendy House is fantastic! My daughter loved it! The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. The grounds are beautiful. We all had fun feeding the fish in the lake and even did a spot of fishing! The little welcome gifts were very thoughtful. Michelle and her husband are super welcoming and they can't do enough for you, the perfect hosts. We will definitely be back, maybe next time for a winter visit so we can experience the log fire and the hot tub when it's colder outside! We can't thank you enough x

We recently visited the Farmhouse with our children and dog. Such a lovely place with the loveliest hosts - away from the crowds with gorgeous views all around. The house is exceptionally well equipped and beautifully furnished. Hot tub and pretty garden complete it all. We will definitely be back.

We loved the Farmhouse, our hosts were brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. There was a nice welcome pack and The Farmhouse had everything we needed in its superb kitchen. The lounge was big enough for us and we had a lovely cosy fire going with the logs provided. The fishing was great for beginners, my Grandson caught his first fish and it was literally one a chuck once the water had warmed up a bit. Good garden for the kids to play in and a nice hot tub. Plenty pf grass around for the dog to have a great time as well. The Farmhouse is remote which we thought was a good thing, nothing was too far and it allowed for plenty of space, peace and quiet. As mentioned before the drive down is a tad bumpy but didn't cause us any issues. Mark, Izzy, Peanut and family.

We had a fabulous stay at the Farmhouse,very comfortable and the log fire was amazing with lots of logs already supplied for us , fabulous kitchen and everything in it you could possibly need and more, beds were extremely comfortable and great dog walks around the garden,lovely friendly owners who lived next door that made us feel extremely welcome and their welcome pack was fantastic which also included doggie biscuits and a lovely squeaky toy which our Jack Russell loved, the chilled prosecco was a lovely touch especially after a very long drive from up north , lots of things to see and do in the surrounding areas and amazing beaches, would definitely recommend

The Farmhouse had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The beds were very comfy and a lot of thought had been put into everything you would need in the house. It’s in a beautiful area and in a lovely central position close to so many beautiful parts of Cornwall. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you

House was very comfortable and nicely appointed. We loved the nearby walks and rural location with lovely beaches a short drive away and spa treatments 10 minutes away. A fabulous holiday, the owners made us very welcome and we can’t wait to book a return visit.

We had a lovely stay at The Farmhouse. It’s a beautiful property in a lovely part of Cornwall. The property was well equipped, clean and well cared for with a sweet little garden and play area for children. A thing to be aware of for the car is the bumpy track leading to the house, but that’s part of the joy of country living!

It was handy having Wadebridge close by for shops but also being in the depths of the countryside. There are also lots of lovely beaches about half an hour away.

In all we would definitely recommend this as a place to stay!

A spacious welcoming farmhouse well laid out with a big kitchen and large grounds with lovely garden for small children.

The Farmhouse is an ideal property for a family with young children. The garden provides a safe environment for children with play equipment and a lovely little play house.
