Travel Directions.
From Exeter take the A30 (Okehampton by-pass) into Cornwall and follow the dual carriage way towards Launceston & Bodmin (appx 1 hour). Note: Just past Launceston there is a turning, sign posted Wadebridge - this takes you across to the A39 and into Wadebridge via Camelford. Ignore this. It is a shorter route (marginally) but much slower.
Just outside of Bodmin come off the A30. This is the first proper junction for some time with a slip road and bridge. Although it is not sign posted Wadebridge, it is the A389 leading into Bodmin and sign posted Bodmin / Lostwithiel. Note: If you happen to miss this, panic not. Continue on the dual carriage way, past the next junction (Bodmin & Liskeard A38) and eventually (5 miles) you’ll come to the exit for St. Austell and Bodmin. Wadebridge is well sign posted from here and you’ll be directed through Lanivet and the outskirts of Bodmin back on to the A389 to Wadebridge.
Anyway, assuming you are alert, come off the A30, up the slip road, across the bridge and back over the A30, following the road down the hill, past Asda into Bodmin. Turn right at the T-junction at the bottom of the hill. Bodmin football club will be on your left and the police station on your right as you travel a few hundred meters to a small mini-roundabout.
Take a right (Wadebridge is now sign posted) following the A389 through Bodmin for a mile or so and you’ll eventually come to a junction with 2 silly mini roundabouts at which everyone gets confused as to who has right of way. Take a right (sign posted Wadebridge) and continue on the A389.
Keep following this road. Down a hill, across the old railway line, over the River Camel, up through Dunmere Wood, passing through Washaway and Sladesbridge en-route to Wadebridge.
Just past the village of Sladesbridge, on the near outskirts of Wadebridge, there is a large garden centre on the right (Trelawney) and as you round the next bend, take the road off to the left sign posted Wadebridge and Egloshayle (the main road continues up the hill to the right as the new Wadebridge by-pass).
You will now be on Egloshayle Road. Follow it past the church and over a number of road humps. On your right are various houses and cottages and soon you will see a children's play park on your left, then the tennis courts followed by the bowling green.
Lowenna House is a large, white, detached property on the right hand side, set above and back from the road diagonally opposite the bowling green. There is parking in a lay-by right outside the house but if full, take an immediate left, through a narrow gap in the wall on to a small lane alongside the bowling green. You may park in this area, near to the pedestrian bridge leading over the River Camel into the town centre.
Welcome & we trust you had a good trip.
