The ancient town of Wadebridge was first recorded in 1313. It was originally a market town but later became a foundry town, being actually known as Wadebridge from when its bridge across the River Camel was built in 1460. Wadebridge is very pretty and offers an excellent array of shops, cafes and restaurants. It is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding hills and moors and the Camel Trail, a wonderful walking and cycling track following the old railway route from Bodmin to Padstow. Close by are the popular villages of Rock and St Enodoc, the last resting place of the former poet laureate Sir John Bedjeman. In June every year, Wadebridge is the site of the magnificent Royal Cornwall Show, one of the largest agricultural shows held in the country. The fabulous fishing port of Padstow is a tourist mecca with excellent amenities and a passenger ferry across the river to Rock and the beach at Daymer Bay. Harlyn and Constantine Bays are wonderful and the surfing paradise of Polzeath is within easy reach. The area is a golfing haven with the renowned courses of Trevose, Point at Polzeath and St Enodoc all within twenty minutes so don’t forget your clubs!
Broadmeadows Place offers an incredible amount of space and very tasteful interiors. It also comes with a small garden and patio for alfresco dining. Its contemporary walls of glass offer expansive estuary views from many of the rooms as well as drowning these delightful spaces in natural light. The design of Broadmeadows Place very much makes the most of the Camel Estuary views at every opportunity. The ground floor living space offers a sumptuous corner sofa, striking deer artwork, lovely red colour splashes against the otherwise natural colour palette, a smart dining area and an excellent modern kitchen. With sleek clean lines and a cool vibe, this fabulous home encourages you to embrace the calm. The kitchen leads to a sun room where you can settle with your holiday book enjoying the warmth of the sun and the pretty patio garden.
A trendy open tred staircase leads you upstairs to the bedrooms and a second living room. Here you can laze on the sofa and chairs captivated by the sensational panoramic estuary views. There is even a cute little bistro table and stools so that you can perch with a glass of wine admiring the vistas. There are televisions in both living areas. Broadmeadow Place’s three bedrooms are located on the first and second floors. The luxurious master offers a lavish kingsize bed and a separate seating area so that you can relax after a long walk along the estuary or a game of golf. A delightful twin bedroom is on the same floor with an immaculate shared bathroom. The double room on the second floor enjoys stunning views and an ensuite shower room. There is an additional bathroom on the ground floor.
Broadmeadows Place enjoys a fabulous location, close to Wadebridge, with wonderful Camel Estuary views. Wadebridge enjoys a fascinating history, originating from 1313 when a market and two fairs were granted to Wade. Its fifteenth century bridge across the River Camel is stunning with seventeen arches along its three hundred and twenty foot length. The bridge was built by the Reverend Lovibond in 1460 with legend saying that the wealthy landowners who paid for it made their money from wool. Cycles can be hired to explore the Camel Trail and the surrounding countryside. Wadebridge’s leisure centre offers swimming, squash, weights, a solarium and more.
Padstow is close by, wonderful for exploring the South West Coastal Path, sandy beaches and the attractions aimed at tourists. It boasts some excellent restaurants owned by celebrities. The picturesque port is full of character and historical interest and offers watersports, fishing trips, speedboat rides, sea cruises and crazy golf. The town is centred around the attractive harbour with an eclectic mix of fisherman’s cottages and merchant’s houses. You can take a boat trip from the harbour with a range of activities from wildlife spotting to angling or just messing about on the water and enjoying the sunshine. Most popular are the trips to spot seals, dolphins, puffins and basking sharks. Also popular are the ferry trips over to the upmarket resort village of Rock. The Black Tor passenger ferry takes around five to ten minutes to cross the river and runs throughout the year. Rock is a second home to many rich, famous and holidaying royals. Overlooking Padstow, you will find the fine Elizabethan country house, Prideaux Place. It was built in 1592 and has been passed down through the generations to the current owners, Peter and Elisabeth Prideaux-Brune. It boasts formal gardens and a deer park.
Padstow’s ancient Obby Oss May Day celebrations are a fairly unusual spectacle! The event revolves around the two Obby Osses (hobby horses) which resemble a one-man pantomime horse. The idea is that they are in search of maidens and are followed by a team of morris dancing types, dressed in white and playing accordions and banging drums. It dates back to pre-Christian times.
Padstow is the start of the Camel Trail which is the best known of Cornwall’s recreational trails, following the route of the former North Cornwall Railway. The trail, starting in Padstow passes through Wadebridge and on to Bodmin and then to the village of Blisland on Bodmin Moor. The scenery is stunning along the River Camel and there is plenty of wildlife to spot.
Constantine Bay is gorgeous with one of the best surfing beaches in Cornwall and boasting a sweeping arc of gently shelving golden sand. The west-facing beach also offers delightful rock pools for children. The bay is separated from its neighbour, Booby’s Bay to the north by a thin rocky point and is bordered by a large rocky reef to the south. Constantine Bay is also home to Trevose Golf and Country Club.
The wondrous Eden Project is only just over twenty miles away with its massive covered Biomes where you can trek through the world’s largest indoor rainforest and immerse yourselves in the calm fragrance of the Mediterannean Biome. There are also extensive gardens, contemporary art displays, performances and storytelling to keep you entertained. It is an inspirational place.
