General
- Well-maintained park in a living history museum on the river Tamar
- A 10-minute drive from Tavistock; 35 minutes from Plymouth
- Local pub, shop, restaurant, miniature railway and traditional crafts
Fancy catching a miniature train after breakfast, heading to the pub for lunch and spending the afternoon trying your hand at traditional arts and crafts? You can tick off that little lot without so much as leaving the park at nifty Tamar Valley site Morwellham Quay, where gorgeous river views and family-friendly ents come together for all-round smashing Devon hols.
If you're eyeing a break in this leafy part of Devon, you'll probably be interested in getting out into the surrounding country by bike or on foot (perhaps with a dog trotting along behind). All manner of hikes and two-wheeled jaunts can be organised here, whether you opt for riverside rambles or the footpaths that crisscross the countryside adjacent to the park. Need a restorative tipple pre- and/or post-walk? This site's friendly village pub may very well help you on your merry way… and there's a play area to cater for nippers who've still got a bit of energy to burn while you sip.
Salty sea dogs heading for the Devon or Cornwall coast can also plant their flag here: once a working port, Morwellham Quay is a breezy 35 minutes from Plymouth and 45 minutes from Looe. Riverside explores are also on the cards: here you can bring your rod and fish in the Tamar, with several spots to hire kayaks and canoes nearby.

Local attractions
The Tamar Valley is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and as such has oodles of woodlands, valleys and watery vistas to discover. If you want to check out every twist and turn of the Tamar on a self-powered paddle, head to the nearby village of Calstock (15 minutes' drive) and hire a canoe or kayak.
Fans of long walks will want to dash off to nearby Dartmoor (15 minutes) for hikes across open country and the chance to meet semi-wild ponies. A stranger to these parts? Head 10 minutes down the road to the visitor centre in Tavistock to get your bearings. For those who like their landscapes less rugged, this part of the world has a brill bunch of well-tended National Trust properties, including Buckland Abbey (15 minutes), Cotehele House (20 minutes) and Saltram Park (40 minutes).
Plymouth (35 minutes) makes another top choice for a family-friendly day trip. Head down here for great sea views at Hoe Park, marine adventures at the National Marine Aquarium or saltwater swims free of sand and seaweed at Tinside Lido. If traveling with tots who need to let off some steam, check out Treasure Island activity park in the city centre for miniature golf, trampolines and digger rides galore.
