Boscastle House Hotel

Formerly called Tolcarne House, the hotel is only three miles from Tintagel and has an elevated position, set in extensive grounds.

The atmosphere reflects the comfort and style of a country house hotel, and there are spectacular views - downhill to the wooded Jordon Valley and of the National Trust-owned cliff tops.

Large gardens feature wide lawns [including a croquet lawn], mature shrubs and majestic trees.

Famous gardens within easy reach of Boscastle House Hotel include Trebah, The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the RHS Gardens of Rosemoor, near Bideford.

Every bedroom at Boscastle House is well equipped, with:

• Private en-suite facilities
• Colour television
• Radio alarm clock
• Hairdryer
• Tea and coffee making facilities

All guest rooms are individually furnished and many enjoy wonderful Cornish countrside views.

A choice of breakfast is served each morning in the bright and spacious dining room.

Boscastle House Hotel is set on high ground above the village of Boscastle, about 17 miles from the A30 main road through Devon and Cornwall. Bude and Bideford are further up the coast from Boscastle, with Newquay to the south. The A39 is the main road that runs along the Cornish north coast. There is ample parking for hotel guests.

The annual Bude Jazz Festival is held in nearby Bude over the bank holiday weekend in August.

A short walk away are Forraby Common and the South West Coast Path, adjoining which is Willapark promontory, 317 feet high and once an iron age fort.

From this wonderful view point there are dramatic views of the coastline, Boscastle and its surrounding countryside.

There is a great variety of scenery in North Cornwall, particularly in the Boscastle area, which is an excellent centre for touring.

Nearby are the ruins of Tintagel Castle and the Old Post Office, whilst further down the coast are the fascinating villages of Port Isaac and Port Quin.

Just beyond is the Camel Estuary where you may ferry from Rock to Padstow as John Betjeman did during his Cornish ventures. A few miles inland is Bodmin Moor with its two famous tors, Roughtor and Brown Willy.

Many outstanding walks can be taken from the hotel. Beaches at Trebarwith Strand, Bossiney Cove and Crackington Haven are just a short drive away.

Sea fishing and trout fishing on a local lake are available as is riding at a local stable or on Bodmin Moor. Bowood Park Golf Course is only 6 miles from Boscastle House Hotel.

The National Trust owns a great deal of land in the region. Not far away are 2 of Cornwall's most famous country houses, Llanhydrock and Pencarrow.

The lovely cathedral city of Truro, the picturesque fishing village of Clovelly and the famous Eden project attraction are all within a 45 minute drive.
