Didn't get in it was so busy, and not sure I would have wanted to either there are enormous potholes so big that ppl going in were grounding their sumps unless they had 4X4's. Ended up parking I what was probably a passing place further back down the road. The only redeeming feature is it's closeness to Rough Tor and the enchantingly named Brown Willy Cornwalls Highest Hill, almost a hands in pockets stroll.
Absolutely stunning walk up to the top of rough tor. Plenty of parking, wild ponies, sheep, cows, birds and a view to die for looking west to brown Willy.
It's a car park at the base of Roughtor ? Easy to get to. Lovely setting, only a short walk to the trail that leads up the Tor, which is about a 1mile hike.
Room for about 20 cars. Check out the Charlotte Dymond memorial to the right of the stone bridge, erected at the murder site of this poor girl. Google the full story in the Cornwall Guide.
Free of charge and right at the base of Rough Tor and the Moor. Ideal place to park.
Great carpark but just a warning, there are no loos here. So you may need to go before you head off. Unless you don't mind a wild wee...
Free to park, probably enough room for 15-20 cars. No toilets. Road down quite narrow, as many are in Cornwall
The first day of summer and what a cracking start it is around here shorts on and getting my push bike ready for a good day out started off at Davidow and went to Rough Tor only about five miles. A few steep hills to pedal up/walk up and into the small unkept car park you be alright in a small van but it is a bit rough with potholes and even some of the cars were grounding out. Anyway, it was well worth the effort getting there the walk up to the top was an easy hike although, after all the rain and snow we have had it was quite wet and boggy the views across the moors were great and the rock formation and the rock stacks were amazing. when coming back down to the carpark by the stream if you look over to the left there is a monument to a girl that was murdered at the spot where it stands this happened on April 14th, 1844 the story goes that she was friends with two boys and the one that they hung for the crime might of been the innocent one. Below are a few photos of the top of Rough Tor, along with a photo of the monument and a copy of the inscription on the monument. "This monument is erected by Public subscription in Memory of Charlotte Dymond who was Murdered hereby Matthew Weekes on Sunday, April 14, 1844."
Just a small car park. No facilities. Easy accessible from / to local small town. Access to open Moorland to Rough Tor, Brown Willy and beyond!
Perfect location to walk up Brown Willy and Rough Tor. Very narrow road on the way in, probably unsuitable for a large motor home. Be mindful of the large pot holes on the way into the carpark. Parking is free but it's only a small carpark so I would imagine it gets full quickly during peak tourist season.
