About this business

Rough Tor is one of Bodmin Moor’s most iconic spots, a wild and windswept granite peak that’s perfect for anyone with a love for the great outdoors. It’s not a business but rather a natural landmark, drawing walkers, photographers, and history buffs alike. The climb up is a bit of an adventure, with rugged paths winding through heather and ancient stone formations. At the summit, you’ll find panoramic views that stretch for miles across the moor, with dramatic skies and rolling hills that change with the weather.

There’s a real sense of mystery here, with Bronze Age remains and the famous logan stone adding to the atmosphere. The air feels fresh and invigorating, and there’s a peacefulness you don’t often find elsewhere. Whether you’re after a bracing walk, a picnic with a view, or just a bit of time to soak up Cornwall’s wild beauty, Rough Tor offers a truly memorable escape. Don’t forget your camera—the scenery is absolutely stunning, especially at sunset when the light dances across the rocks.
