This is a challenging and scenic route that covers the SW peninsula. It is best undertaken outside the main holiday period: just before or after the school summer break are ideal times. You'll need to prepare well and carry some provisions. There is a Premier Inn at Bude which is about the right distance for a sleep stop. Like all great rides it includes a ferry crossing (Polruan to Fowey).
