Why Book a Holiday Cottage in the Tamar Valley?

With more home comforts and space available in a holiday cottage than with a hotel or bed and breakfast accommodation, self-catering holiday homes in the Tamar Valley can make perfect sense. Why holiday in the Tamar Valley itself? Well, the Tamar Valley is a National Landscape (originally an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), and is a tranquil and stunning area centred around the River Tamar and River Tavy in Cornwall. The area covers estuary scenery, river gorges, wetlands, woodlands, orchards, rolling hills and salt marshes. This AONB starts just south of Launceston, and runs through Gunnislake, close to Tavistock and downwards on to Calstock and winds up close to Saltash.

Discover charming towns like Calstock and Callington, as well as charming historic villages and railways. Learn about the area’s mining heritage, and visit the Tamar Valley and Tavistock area of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site.

When holidaying in this part of Cornwall, look out for local wildlife; the area is a hotspot for kingfishers, as well as wading birds and wildfowl. Whether you enjoy walking, hiking or wildlife watching, there is some stunning scenery to discover in this scenic part of Cornwall.
