You can also take the railcar to Looe from Causeland Halt, close by Badham Farm, and travel along the picturesque Looe Valley Line down to the sea. The railcar service operates between Liskeard and Looe and stops on request at Causeland Halt, adjacent to the grounds of Badham Farm, making us directly accessible by train from any part of the UK. The service runs, in either direction, on an approximately hourly interval during the summer season. Guests can enjoy car free days out and use the train to visit many parts of Cornwall and ride on other scenic rail routes such as the Tamar Valley Line. Tickets are purchased on the railcar from the conductor and prices are very reasonable.
