Set in almost 4 acres of its own grounds and gardens, overlooking some 20 miles of the North Cornwall coast, perched high above Port Quin, between Port Isaac and Polzeath, The Longcross is in the perfect secluded location to enjoy a quiet relaxing break yet is within easy striking distance of some of the area's best attractions. Rock and the Camel Estuary with its associated sailing and watersports and easy ferry access to Padstow, the championship golf course at St. Enodoc, Daymer Bay and Polzeath surfing beaches, historic Port Isaac fishing village, local market town of Wadebridge with cycle hire for the Camel Trail to Padstow and the diverse Bodmin Moor are all within 20 minutes drive. The Eden Project is 40 minutes and Tate Gallery is 80 minutes drive. Port Isaac has recently featured in Martin Clunes' Doc Martin as the fictional village of Portwenn and farmland adjacent to the hotel as well as the hotel itself has been used for filming.GardensLocated adjacent to the hotel are our Long Cross Victorian Gardens, the only public gardens on the North Cornish coast, and the subject of a television feature because of their unusual aspects. The gardens remain in the original Victorian garden layout and they retain their original splendour. Visitors often say that they have never seen a garden resembling the Long Cross and this is mainly because the gardens were constructed primarily to overcome the difficulties of the local climate.North Cornwall is England's windiest area with strong winds laden with salt even in the summer, this results in the garden receiving one hundredweight of salt per acre per year. Plants are available to buy at the gardens and if you note the plants that you are interested in as you walk around the garden we can provide you with your own plants, propagated from the garden stock. We are delighted to have recently been asked to join The Gardens of Cornwall Scheme for which there are fairly rigorous quality control standards and we are the only public gardens on the north Cornish coast.
