Fowey Estuary and Surrounding Area
Most of the coastline of the Fowey Estuary and around is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with rocky bays, picturesque villages, and is of course a boat lover's paradise.
Bodinnick village is extremely picturesque and calm. You can walk into the village from the Park, perhaps enjoy lunch at the Old Ferry Inn, part of which is built into the rock face. Daphne du Maurier's House "Ferryside" is across the road where she wrote "The Loving Spirit" set in nearby Polruan. The annual Daphne du Maurier Festival of Arts & Literature is held in Fowey each May.
There are many varied and interesting walks around, including the famous "Hall Walk", but plan carefully as some of the hills can be steep. From Bodinnick walk to Polruan crouched behind the head of the Estuary via the tiny hamlet of Pont where you can watch the kingfishers, catch the passenger ferry to Fowey and return on the Bodinnick ferry.
