The trail wends from Westward Ho! to Padstow over rugged headlands and around secluded coves, sticking to the Coast Path’s well-waymarked footpaths. This run is still a hilly one, but not quite as taxing as North Devon.
Running along narrow pathways through outstanding natural beauty, with the water on one side and windswept fields on the other.
Pausing to explore the ruins of Tintagel, King Arthur's birthplace.
Sharing the trails with wild ponies and endless wildflowers.

This itinerary lists our preferred overnight stops for this tour.

We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard.
