Port Isaac
The village used as the filming location for the long-running British series Doc Martin. Whitewashed fishermen's cottages cluster along steep narrow lanes above the harbour, and the local shanty group Fisherman's Friends rose to fame here.
Port Isaac is a small fishing village on Cornwall's north coast. Steep, narrow lanes are lined with whitewashed stone cottages clustered around a small harbour. It is the filming location for the long-running British series Doc Martin, where the fictional town of 'Portwenn' is set, and many scenes such as the surgery can be found here. The sea shanty group Fisherman's Friends also comes from the village and often performs at the harbour in summer. You can eat fresh crab and lobster by the harbour, and at low tide you can stroll around the inner harbour. The village roads are extremely narrow, so it is best to park in the car park at the top of the hill and walk down.
