The Drift Cottage

Camelford, South West England

The Drift Cottage
The Drift Cottage offers a comfortable base near Camelford in Cornwall, with space for up to four. It suits those keen to explore the wilder reaches of Bodmin Moor and the surrounding countryside.

History and heritage are within easy reach: Jamaica Inn's Daphne du Maurier & Smuggling Museum is 4.7 miles away, the Museum of Cycling sits at 5.5 miles, and Bodmin Jail is a little further at 6.3 miles, making for a good day trip itinerary. Bodmin Parkway station, 7.9 miles off, is the nearest rail link, so a car is recommended for getting about this rural part of Cornwall comfortably.
