Boscastle is a picturesque, rural village, and is popular with tourists. It is located on the northern coast of Cornwall, in the far South West of England. Boscastle is approximately 80 miles and 45km from the nearest large urban area, Plymouth. The village has two rivers meeting there, Valency and Jordan, which come from the high hills of Bodmin Moor.
