Colliford Lake

Highlight • Viewpoint

Colliford is the largest lake in Cornwall and the road passing by it provides superb views.

There are plentiful picnic spots alongside the lake, but watch out for ponies roaming free who might steal a sandwich.

Watersports aren't allowed here which makes for a peaceful area, but you may spot a fly fisher seeking out an elusive brown trout.

Jamaica Inn

Highlight • Pub

Surely Cornwall's most famous inn, this is the setting of Daphne Du Maurier's novel 'Jamaica Inn'. The pub is a Grade II-listed building and was built in the mid-18th century. It was a well known smugglers inn and is today quite a tourist destination. In the heart of Bodmin Moor, it certainly occupies an impressive position.
