Guests have access to a range of facilities available at the holiday park; there is a bar and shop on-site, as well as an outdoor and indoor pool and several playgrounds, perfect for little ones, while the gym is a great place to start each day with a healthy boost of endorphins. The market town of Callington offers a good selection of shops, pubs, restaurants and bakeries, which makes sense, as it is the home of the Ginsters Cornish pasty. The town has a rich mining heritage, and is overlooked by Kit Hill, which was given to the people of Cornwall by Prince Charles in honour of Prince William; the top of the hill boasts far-reaching views to Plymouth Sound. The Tamar Valley AONB is close by, which sees the rivers Tamar, Tavy and Lynher running through its centre, and offers walking, cycling and horse riding opportunities along several scenic trails, as well as shops, eateries and historic houses, including the National Trust's Cotehele and Buckland Abbey. Dartmoor National Park borders the Tamar valley and offers more than 900 square kilometres of varied landscape, from forests to rivers, wetlands to tors, you can walk, cycle or enjoy a guided tour, where you may see Dartmoor ponies, Neolithic tombs, Bronze Age stone circles and abandoned medieval farmhouses. 6 Manorcombe Bungalows is a fantastic getaway that the whole family will love, in a great location for exploring both Cornwall and Devon.
The market town of Callington is on the fringes of the Tamar Valley, close to the Cornwall/Devon border. Rich in mining heritage and overlooked by Kit Hill, the highest point in the area, which was donated to the people of Cornwall by Prince Charles to celebrate the birth of Prince William. From the top of the hill, you can enjoy views across south-east Cornwall as far as Plymouth Sound. The Tamar Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offers a good selection of shops, inns and cafés, as well as being the home of Ginsters Cornish pasties. A few miles away, the quaint village of Calstock clings to the steep banks of the River Tamar and is dominated by the splendid Calstock Railway Viaduct, a giant 11-arched stone construction supporting one of Britain’s most picturesque branch lines running through the Tamar Valley. Other interesting places along the river are National Trust-owned Cotehele, a beautiful historic house and gardens and Morwhellam Quay, a theme park where visitors can explore the rich mining heritage and watch blacksmiths, potters and craftsmen at work. The pannier market town of Tavistock is only nine miles from Callington and is well worth a visit on your way to a day’s walk on Dartmoor. A splendid base to explore south Cornwall and West
