From Bude head south on the A39 signposted Wadebridge. Continue on the A39 for
approximately 14 miles, take the next left signposted Launceston. At the crossroads head straight across passing at Davidstow Creamery, going over the cattle grid and turning left over Davidstow Moor once over the final cattle grid continue along for approximately 1/2 a mile and take the right hand turning signed Bowithick.
