In Boscastle, all local residents and visitors are restricted to using the large Pay and Display Car Park opposite the Cobweb Inn, only 50 meters from the property. This car park charges daily from 10:00am to 5:00pm. After this time, the car park is free.
The Riverside is only five minutes from the South West Coastal path and Boscastle Harbour but is situated in the centre of the village. We are adjacent to all amenities, with excellent restaurants and pubs nearby.
