Looe Valley branch line
Open top bus to Lands End There is lots to do and see near to Cider Cottage, but a day visit to other Cornish delights is hard to resist.
For some day trips in Cornwall the car is the only option. But occasionally it’s great to give the driver a rest and get out and about on the train or bus, particularly the open toppers.
Fortunately Liskeard railway station is not far from Cider Cottage, and it has very reasonable parking charges. Most of our guests enjoy a trip on the very scenic Looe Valley branch line, which cannot be missed. But there are great connections from Liskeard for going further afield too.
A visit to St. Ives is quite easy by train and again very scenic. Parking in St. Ives is difficult and expensive, so a relaxing train trip takes all that hassle away. Penzance is another destination to consider where there is the option of a bus ride to Marazion to visit nearby St. Michael’s Mount, and the ever popular Mousehole, or maybe take a trip to Lands End on the open topper.
There is also the Cathedral City of Truro, with its connections to Falmouth. In the other direction, the picturesque Tamar Valley line is also easily reached by train from Liskeard.
All are excellent day trips by train and what a treat to avoid the roads. We have all the timetables and details in Cider Cottage to make a car free day easy to plan ahead. And of course we are on hand to offer advice and help if required, having travelled extensively ourselves by Public Transport in Cornwall.
