Holiday Cottages in Bude
Polperro
A real favourite,
picturesque cornish fishing villages. Dont try to travel by car down
to the harbour, instead park at the top of the hill, in the huge car park
(£1.50p for 2 hours and £2 for 4 hours 2006). After parking
you can choose between five different means to take you down
to the harbour. Why not enjoy the attractive 15 minutes stroll
down to the harbour instead, passing pretty eating places and cottages,
down to the main part of the village and the harbour. The not so
energetic can take the Horse Bus (75p each way plus an ice cream-2006),
the piscie carriage, the landrover (it is free on the return journey!)
and the Polperro Tram Company little bus-all at low rates. If you
do choose to walk you will not be disappointed to have made the effort.
At the end of the walk is the greater part of this pretty village, with
colour washed cottages, and an array of shops, cafes, restaurants
and old pubs with lots of outdoor seating- fish menus with locally caught
fresh fish. Proceed to the delightful harbour where there is a colourful
array of fishing and sailing boats. Conveniently, boat trips to Looe and
Fowey & fishing trips for mackerel from Polperro harbour (advertised
on the quayside). There is a small little sandy beach which
lies adjoining the harbour and is visible at low tide.
