Between St Ann's Chapel and Halton Quay, overlapping the Tamar Valley AONB, is the charming Cornish village of St Dominick. The village, which is only a short distance from the gorgeous River Tamar, has a farm shop, a pub, The Who'd Have Thought It Inn, and a post office providing all the necessities. Visits to nearby attractions include the Tamar Valley Donkey Park, Cotehele, a stunning working flour mill owned by the National Trust, and the Cargreen Quay's flowing waters. Saltash also has additional things to do, such as the Mary Newmans Cottage Museum and its breath-taking waterfront, which is teeming with restaurants and shops. The Cornish village of Polperro is another suggested stop, with a pretty turquoise cove, Polperro Model Village, and access to the South West Coastal Path, while Plymouth, a coastal city that can be reached by car, is home to the Elizabethan Gardens, Hoe Park, Theatre Royal Plymouth, and the Plymouth Gin Distillery, all worth adding to your itinerary.
