Property Location
Both Wadebridge and nearby Camelford are centrally located in order to explore the nearby hills and moors. Wadebridge is the perfect base, being the half way point, from which to discover the Camel Trail, a walk and cycle track following the old railway route from Bodmin to Padstow. There is wonderful scenery and plenty of wildlife, including fantastic sightings of wading birds to see on this serene trail and bikes can be hired from Bodmin, Wadebridge or Padstow. From Padstow you could take a boat trip across the Camel Estuary to Rock, and lounge on the beautiful beach that stretches all the way around to Daymer Bay. The National Lobster Hatchery neighbours Rick Steins empire in Padstow.
The National Trust have three properties nearby, Lanhydrock House, Trerice and Carnewas and the dramatic cliffs and beach at Bedruthan Steps. Or if you fancy something different try a tour around the Camel Valley Vineyard, Cornish Wine has been growing in stature around the world and their sparkling wines are truly stunning, having picked up lots of international awards, go for a tasting you will not be disappointed!
Wadebridge boasts a selection of pubs, shops and a cinema. Padstow is of course home to Rick Stein's empire and is definitely worth a visit. There is a large Tesco store approximately 1/2 mile from the cottage. There are some wonderful walks nearby, explore the stunning coastal footpath with magnificent views over secluded coves with golden beaches, crashing surf and towering headlands or alternatively head inland and explore the rugged beauty of Bodmin Moor.

Great location to explore Cornwall.

Lovely comfortable stay, probably not overly suitable for dogs
Reviewed on 21/01/2022The Cottage was very clean, comfortable and amazingly equipped - didn't want for anything. As far as these things are concerned by far the best holiday let I have stayed in. The location was great with a less than 10 min walk into Wadebridge centre and a short drive to the best places (Daymer Bay, Harlyn, Padstow). Only down sides: Its not really suitable for dogs - the garden is steep with quite a large step down into it and does not pose too much of a challenge for escapologists! We ended up not using the garden and taking the dogs out the front on leads. As it was winter the dogs were quite dirty and no real facilities to clean them - so had to do this in the porch area - which wasn't ideal. The parking area is also quite a steep walk up - so not ideal if you have mobility issues. Overall I definitely recommend.

Great for cycling holidays
Reviewed on 08/05/2021Lovely house, plenty of parking and bike storage. Lots to do nearby, we mostly went on local bike rides and to the beach. The house has everything you need, even smaller details in the kitchen that you wouldn't expect, fully stocked. The DVD player didn't work, but we rarely found time to watch TV. Kids loved the garden and we even made use of the BBQ.

Great location and light, bright accommodation
Reviewed on 29/04/2021We had a great week at Riverview. The house was clean and well equipped. It's a five minute walk into the centre of town and we made good use of the local bus service to complete various sections of the south west coast path. The light, airy lounge was perfect for evening relaxation with views down over the river to the cricket pitch. The owners and local housekeeper were very helpful (we checked whether any use could be made of some leftover food items and received a very prompt reply) and communication was easy and quick. It's a lovely area to explore, with or without a car.

Great location, wonderful home, a week of comfort.
Reviewed on 02/10/2020We stayed at River View in September 2020 after our holiday abroad was cancelled. I was immediately impressed with the cleanliness of the house, we instantly knew it had been made COVID-19 secure. The location is fantastic, Wadebridge is a great little town with a lot to keep you going like a Co-Op, Tesco, M&S Food and numerous independent shops. You're not too far for the rest of Cornwall whether that's north, south, east or west. The house is well appointed, plenty of seating and light in every room. Kitchen is well stocked with plates, cups and other Utensils. The view out of the main bedroom is a delight and was always lovely to wake up to in the morning.
