The location of attractions is intended only as a guide. Distances are 'as the crow flies'.
Nearest pub
Fox and Grapes Lifton (2 ¼ miles)
A quaint village pub that's been done up for the 21st century with a bar and family-style restaurant. The locals love it for the Sunday Carvery and regular food nights. Visitors love that it caters for little ones and has a beer garden.
Nearest beach
Widemouth Beach (16 miles)
Just along the coast from the busy resort of Bude, Widemouth is a long, long stretch of sand backed by high cliffs. Unusual rock formations on the beach are a magnet for climbers while the Atlantic surf brings bodyboarders, kayakers and surfers here in their hundreds. Widemouth Bay is home to a scattering of houses, pubs, cafes and restaurants but there remains a definitive sense of having strayed off the beaten path here. There is a section open to dogs all year round, loads of parking and several surf schools.

Excellent
Widemouth bay is lovely, we've stayed near here a few times and it never disappoints.
August 2011
Great beach for surfing and swimming due to waves and lifeguards on duty.
Nearest walk
Two Castles Trail (1 ¾ miles)
This six and a half mile walk follows fields and country lanes from Lifton to Stowford. It should take you about three hours to walk and you can park on Fore Street, Lifton, where the walk starts. Click the website link for further details.
Nearest town
Launceston (2 miles)
Launceston is almost entirely contained within its ancient original walls and has some unique architecture, including the imposing castle ruins that peer over the town.
June 2011
Launceston is an upbeat town with a fascinating history and good range of shops. I recommend the castle, if you don't mind heights!

Launceston Steam Railway (2 ¼ miles)
Straight out of Thomas the Tank Engine, this is a fun-filled excursion whatever the weather. Learn about the little locomotives, or just sit back and enjoy ride.
Mrs Jewell September 2015
A quirky little train journey! We were glamping at Western Meadows (near New Mill Farm Park) and caught the quaint little steam train from the Farm Park into the town of Launceston for a look around. The children loved the 2 mile journey through countryside, it really did feel like we were stepping back in time.
Lifton Hall (2 miles)
Bar and restaurant in a Grade II listed building, parts of which date back to the 1600s.

Lovely pub / restaurant
Nice friendly pub where we had dinner once and went for drinks a couple of times. Small cosy pub area. Food was very nice. Staff are very friendly. We felt welcome. Quiz night on Tuesdays twice a month.

Good food. Will allow dogs in the bar. Themed food nights are held on alternate Tuesdays.

Lifton Strawberry Field Farm Shop (1 ¼ miles)
Spend an afternoon plucking plump, juicy strawberries in the fields, then try to resist the aroma of freshly baked bread and hot pies luring you into the Barn farmhouse restaurant. If you want to stock up on West Country produce, the farm shop is bursting at the seams with local goodies.
September 2011
Lovely fresh produce
Pick your own strawberries and buy one of their home made pies for supper.
April 2010
You just can't beat pick your own Strawberries, they taste gorgeous and with a traditional farm shop alongside that sells everything you could possibly want, with the added bonus of it all being locally sourced and home-grown, you have to pay them a visit.
October 2009
Great for a Sunday roast, and then you can pick up locally sourced veg, meat and bread straight out of the oven.
January 2009
The ice cream is highly recommended and the restaurant's worth a visit.
Ms Gulliford July 2008
A Farm Shop with a difference.
Whether you want coffee and cake, a full blown roast lunch, a Cornish pasty or Saffron buns - this is the place - the cafe is open every day (you will need to get there early for Sunday lunch). Cooked on the premises the pies, pastries and cakes are to die for. The farm shop always has a good selection of fresh seasonal produce and the butcher's counter has a wide variety of locally farmed meat. For those of you with a cold box there are also pasties, pies, veg and fruits available from the freezer. Well worth a quick detour off the A30.
Launceston Castle (2 ¼ miles)
The impressive keep sits high above the town, with a display charting its 1,000 years of history.
Jo Rider May 2012
A lovely ruin!
It's worth climbing to the top of the keep (which sits on a huge mound) for the lovely views. The grounds are a good place to picnic (having bought a pasty at the baker's in the town).
The Arundell Arms (1 ¾ miles)
With a fistfull of awards including Taste of the West Gold 2016 and AA two Rosettes, pop in for delicious food created using food from local suppliers. You'll receive a warm welcome in contemporary surroundings.
April 2018
Lovely Pub
A grand country house hotel with the added bonus of a pub for classic pub grub. Well worth a visit for afternoon tea.
January 2011
The Arundell Arms
A good luch stop if you are en route to somewhere as its just off the A30. A very traditional country house hotel/restaurant with a hunting, shooting, fishing theme. They do great lunch baguettes and lovely home made shortcake with coffee. Excellent loos too!
June 2009
This 300-year-old coaching inn serves great food with traditional and good service.
