With Poldark returning to our TV screens shortly, the glorious Cornish scenery will be showcased once again. Many will be tempted to visit Cornwall and experience for themselves the stunning coastline and countryside, and tread in the footsteps of Ross and Demelza.

Bodmin Moor, close to Cider Cottage, is where early scenes of the first series were filmed and it's a stunning place to explore with glorious views all around. A little further on across the moor is St. Breward and it’s in this area where the house which doubled as Ross & Demelza’s home, Nampara, is located. This can be viewed from a narrow road close by.

A trip to the North coast around Porthcothan brings us to the area where Ross is often seen galloping across the headland on his trusty steed. A little further west is Holywell Bay and the beautiful cave Morwenna and Drake visited. The beach also features in many scenes in the series.

Lots of filming takes place at the port of Charlestown and it's a super location to visit and soak up the atmosphere. This romantic harbour is the home port for a famous collection of old ships which are employed in film projects all over the world bringing work and life to the quays and harbour buildings and are a particular draw for visitors. There are plenty of bars, restaurants, gift shops and a Shipwreck & Heritage Centre, to be enjoyed whilst taking in the breathtaking views out over St Austell Bay.

Further afield are many other locations used in filming the series and for anyone who wants to explore the filming locations, we can share our local knowledge to help make a memorable trip.

What better time to explore the beautiful Cornish scenery than late Summer/early Autumn when the sea is warm, there is a good chance the sun is out and the peak Summer crowds have dispersed.

    In Feb 2021 Keith and Karen Burden took ownership of Cider Cottage whilst Lynn and Peter the previous owners moved closer to the sea to explore and enjoy more of a coastal life.
    Karen and Keith want to  keep up the very high standards set by the previous owners and very much look forward to welcoming guests again as soon as Government restrictions are lifted and it is safe to do so. 
    ​Lynn and Peter Murnaghan moved from Winchester, Hampshire to Woodhill Manor in Summer 2011. We then spent a good deal of time and energy renovating Cider Cottage to create a fabulous self-catering holiday venue for discerning guests.
