Boscastle, with its own Harbour is impressively situated amidst dramatic cliffs and dates from the mid 16th Century. For many years the Harbour served the inland town of Launceston as a Port, the two being linked by pack-horse and wagon transport. Slate and corn were shipped from the 16th Century pier. The Cornwall coast path along the cliffs from Boscastle to Tintagel is considered one of the finer walks in England. The Harbour and much of the hinterland is now within the control of the National Trust; the village of Boscastle offers a traditional range of shops and local amenities including popular Pubs, places of worship, etc. Tintagel is some 3 miles whilst the North Cornish coastal resort of Bude is some 15 miles. The Cathedral City of Exeter with its inter-city rail and motorway links is some 60 miles whilst Okehampton and Dartmoor is some 40 miles. The market town of Holsworthy is some 22 miles. Road communications have improved rapidly within recent years including the construction of the North Devon link road which by-passes Bideford, Barnstaple and South Molton, joining with the dual carriageway at Tiverton to lead on to the M5 thereafter. In addition, the A30 dual carriageway now extends from Exeter to Launceston and beyond.
