Buttercup At The Camel Trail

Buttercup at the Camel Trail sits in a gated riverside setting near Wadebridge, with three bedrooms sleeping six: a king, a double and a twin. The name isn't marketing - the cottage opens directly onto the Camel Trail, so cycling or walking starts at the gate rather than after a drive.

Three bathrooms cover the three bedrooms, an unusually generous ratio for a six-person cottage, useful when two families or a mixed group of friends are sharing. WiFi, parking, a dishwasher and a garden are included, and one dog is welcome. There's no washing machine on site and no wood burner, so plan a laundrette trip or pack accordingly for longer stays.

The cottage overlooks a meadow with the River Camel running past, in the Wadebridge area with St Mabyn as the nearest town. Beaches are a proper drive rather than a stroll: Port Gaverne Beach is 7.0 miles away, Tregardock Beach is 8.0 miles and Daymer Bay is 9.2 miles. Ten reviews put the cottage at 4.8 out of 5, among the stronger ratings for this stretch of the trail.

**Best for:** walkers, cyclists and groups of six wanting trail access at the gate, three bathrooms and a riverside setting.

**Less good for:** beach-first stays, or anyone needing a washing machine, EV charging or a wood burner for cooler evenings.
