Herodsfoot


(Average user rating: unrated unrated)

Nestling within the West Looe Valley, Herodsfoot is the place to escape to when it's not beach weather.

Bring your family to this quiet woodland and you will be able to walk and cycle safely away from any busy roads.

If you're travelling from further afield, why not book a stay in a fully furnished cabin in the heart of Deerpark Forest? The site is located on an old gunpowder mill and some of the cabins are next to the water's edge around the old mill pond. Short breaks available and dogs welcome. For information or bookings visit www.forestholidays.co.uk or call 0845 130 8224.

Please note: the Deerpark cabin site is closed due to drainage works until the end of February. The Red and Yellow trails are also closed until the end of February, due to the drainage works and felling of Phytophthora infected larch.

How to get there:

Liskeard and Looe are the nearest towns or villages.

From the B3359 East Taphouse to Looe road turn off at the junction signposted to Herodsfoot.
