Three Corners Meadow

How does a zipwire with twin cables, a giant clifftop swing, axe throwing or coasteering sound? Those are just some of the activities on hand at Adrenalin Quarry (15 minutes’ drive). The old flooded quarry has sheer cliffs on three sides and a deep lake, making another scenic option being to laze around and watch the activities unfold with a chilled drink in hand. Hiking fans won’t be far off a trail to tackle either, since Bodmin Moor (40 minutes) is also within reach. Here, you’ll find Colliford Lake (half an hour), great for fly fishing or a lakeside walk, the Golitha Falls (20 minutes) and the Carnglaze Caverns (20 minutes). The latter has underground tunnels and a long mining heritage for any history aficionados. Add a museum or aquarium visit to your itinerary too. Plymouth (45 minutes) is home to the Royal William Yard (50 minutes), with its waterside shops and restaurants. Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park (40 minutes), a regal house and gardens, resides there too. While you’re that way, you might as well go and check out the Rame Head Heritage Coast (40 minutes) and its spectacular walking trails.
