Boscastle

Boscastle

Boscastle, an idyllic fishing village on the rugged North Cornish coast, is a place full of magic, history, and natural beauty. With its sheltered natural harbor, narrow streets, and characteristic stone houses, the village offers a very special atmosphere – perfect for a stop on a convertible road trip along the famous Atlantic Highway. The spectacular route combines panoramic views of the sea with the distinctive charm of rural England.

Breathtaking views and winding convertible roads along the coast

The approach to Boscastle via the Atlantic Highway – a section of the A39 – is made for convertible fans. The convertible route between Bude, Tintagel, and Wadebridge features gentle coastal hills alternating with rugged cliffs, green valleys, and wide views over the Atlantic. The wind in your hair, the play of light on the water, and the close connection to nature make every turn an experience.

Particularly attractive is the convertible route between Tintagel Castle and Boscastle: narrow country roads winding through the hilly coastal landscape, offering new views of the steep coastline or blooming hedgerows around every curve.

Magical village with history – experiencing Boscastle

Boscastle itself enchants with its small harbor, which nearly disappears at high tide, as well as the famous witch museum dedicated to Cornwall's mystical side. Old cottages, cozy pubs, and a peaceful walking path along the River Valency to its mouth at the sea create an incomparable atmosphere.

The village has been lovingly rebuilt after the devastating flood disaster in 2004 and appears more vibrant than ever. A particularly beautiful short hike leads up to the cliffs around the harbor, from where breathtaking views of the coast can be enjoyed – a perfect photo stop on any convertible journey through Cornwall.
