Public Transport
We are very rural here and, as there is no public transport to speak of, you will find it very difficult to go anywhere without a car
Taxi Service
Taxis must be booked in advance, for large groups at least a month is recommended. Shirley's Taxis will organise your taxi needs, whether for individuals or large groups.
Tel: 07743 743222
Train or Coach
The nearest train station is Bodmin Parkway, 20 miles west of us. Public transport from Bodmin to here is slow and complicated, so it is recommended that you hire a car.
If you want to use public transport, it is easier to leave the train or coach at Exeter.
From Exeter you can take a coach to Launceston, and from there another to Davidstow Church which is walking distance from the site.
Flights to Newquay
There are flights to Newquay from London Gatwick and Manchester all year round, and London Southend, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Newcastle and Belfast during the summer months. Car hire is available at Newquay Airport, which is approximately 25 miles from the site.
