Port Isaac

North Cornwall

5/5

Based on 6 reviews

You might well recognise some of Port Isaac's winding lanes and its harbour; the port has long been a star of both the big and small screens, most notably in ‘Doc Martin' and ‘Saving Grace'. This is Cornwall at its most quaint with streets so steep and narrow that in many places cars simply don't fit. For a great meal of fresh fish landed at Port Isaac's harbour, the Edge Restaurant is a brilliant choice and somehow those panoramic views out to sea from the tables add to the flavour.

Lovely village

Very interesting and lovely to see all the places from 'Doc Martin' TV series, and learn how it had helped the village with funding. Got quite busy and didn't find any nice tearoom for a coffee, the only one was full.

Would recommend!

Coastal walk to Portquin is very strenuous but excellent on a clear day!

Would recommend Nicky Bs pasty shop rather than others!

Obviously is a tourist trap so can get very busy and parking is a significant walk from the harbour.

Doc Martin Filming in Port Isaac

They are presently filming a new series of Doc Martin in Port Isaac so keep your eyes open for Martin Clunes and the rest of the cast and crew. And when you get home it's great fun to spot the scenes you saw being filmed!
