Set amid the gentle folds of the Cornish countryside, Launceston is often described as the gateway to Cornwall, lying right on the Devon border. The town is instantly recognisable thanks to its striking Norman castle, whose ruins crown the hillside and offer sweeping views across both Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor. Once a key stronghold following the Norman Conquest, the castle green later became the site of public executions until the 19th century.

Perfectly positioned between Cornwall’s north and south coasts, Launceston provides easy access to beaches, moorland and miles of unspoilt countryside. The wider area caters for every interest, with two golf courses close by and Roadford Lake Country Park offering trout fishing, sailing, windsurfing, cycling, rowing, kayaking and camping.

The town itself blends well-known national retailers—such as Marks & Spencer Food Hall, Tesco, Argos and Pets at Home—with an appealing mix of independent and artisan shops. Excellent transport links include the A30, which reaches the M5 at Exeter in under 45 minutes, and the A388, placing Plymouth less than an hour away. For those seeking the coast, the popular seaside town of Bude lies just 17 miles to the north.
