Cotehele Quay provides beautiful views over the Tamar River which runs close to the road.

It is now a Discovery Centre but was once a bustling quay transporting goods to and from Plymouth. There is a working watermill, a tea room here on an estate run by the National Trust. For further information visit their website nationaltrust.org.uk/cotehele/features/cotehele-quay
