    Hinton St George

    13 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Our first night stopover in the Lord Poulett Arms in the beautiful thatched hamlet of Hinton St George.

    We managed a village walk to a local beauty spot - The Spreading Oak Tree (known locally as the Bouncing Tree due to the size of its boughs). Apparently it has the largest spread of boughs in the country.

    Despite the longest summer drought, Hilary still managed to trash her trainers in the only boggy part of Somerset! Oh man!

    Had a drink in the French garden at the pub next to a Boules Piste, although we didn’t play!

    Lovely meal in the bar before calling it a night. Early start tomorrow to complete the drive to Mousehole.

    None of the rooms have TVs! No bad thing imho......more to come tomorrow x    Baca selengkapnya

    St. Michael's Mount

    15 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Following a lovely breakfast , with our walking shoes on and our trusty rucksack we set off to St Michaels mount ,6.6 miles one way . Sun shining. The coastal path dipped in and out of Newlyn and Penzance. We walked the last mile along the beach , admiring the all the shapes and sizes of the Sunday sunbathers 😘 .
    Joining the National Trust ( a true sign of our ages) as we bought our entrance ticket to the mount . First stop Cornish clotted cream vanilla ice cream . Lovely 😊. Then along with many Chinese visitors ( that seemed to have followed us all the way from Canada) we explored the castle. Great views from the top .
    Just before we set off on our walk back we stopped for a cool glass of Pims and a pint 🍺.
    6.6 miles back , same route. A little sunburned 🤭
    Needed to lie down with throbbing feet elevated when we got back .    Baca selengkapnya

    Walk to Lamorna Cove

    16 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    A rain delayed start to the day's play ,which meant that we had a leisurely breakfast and a read of the papers .
    Set off at 11 am heading south on the coastal path from Mousehole.
    Pre warned it was a little rocky in places ( and thats the truth ! ) and rather
    close to the edge ! We walked to Lamorna Cove . A beautiful little gem . Just a few houses and the obligatory cafe . Just the perfect spot for a cream tea 😋 xxx

    Update.....well earned beer in the Ship Inn back in Mousehole.....🍺🍺🍺    Baca selengkapnya

    We watched the seals bobbing in and out of the sea at this point

    First Full Day in St. Ives.....

    18 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    So today we decided to try to walk the coastal path to Zennor again . On our last trip 4 years ago we got 3/4 of the way and then turned around.
    Today we did it !!!!
    It's noted as one of the most challenging parts of Cornwall's coastal path . That is the TRUTH!!
    Wild , literally breath taking, challenging, steep , boulder climbing , not really comparable to the 6 miles as the crow flies !!!
    Feel like we need some kind of medal for achieving it . Only our fellow hikers can understand our pain .
    These pics honestly do not show the reality of this walking challenge !!!!    Baca selengkapnya

    Whilst we have been in St. Ives some strange phenomenon has happened to Hilary's hair! 🤔

    Badger Inn - Uny Lelant

    19 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    Last full day in St. Ives..... Today we walked north along the coastal path heading to Lelant . Not too far today ,3.5 miles .

    Stopped for light refreshments.....it would be rude not to 🥟🍺

    Planning to spend our afternoon on this beautiful beach and have our second swim in the sea, (we swam yesterday afternoon . It was freezing ) we will be watching out for jaws 🐟 don't worry, there are plenty of Life guards 😉    Baca selengkapnya

    Last night in St Ives

    20 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    This evening we visited The Upper Deck bar . Then on recommendation we went to the new Thai restaurant on the harbour. Lucky to get a seat . They don't take bookings . Had a fantastic ( however not very traditionally Cornish ) meal . Then we walked along the harbour wall one last time . Listened to the local singers outside The Sloop . Then went to bed .
    I have to say I love ths place . A little bit touristy and in places tatty around the edges . But I have some fabulous memories from our visits here . The Sloop is perfect in every way for me ( I think Richard would prefer something a little more refined ) 😉 . One day we will re visit I hope Xx Bye for now St Ives . It's been fantastic xxxx    Baca selengkapnya

    Porthtowan - Update

    24 Juli 2018, Inggris ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    Our last day . The rain arrived early whilst we were having breakfast . Only fine rain with a promise for glorious sunshine later in the day .
    First time this holiday we had to don our cagoules . We explored St Agnes village .
    About half a mile from the cove where we are stopping .
    Then we set off on our last walk .
    8.4 miles round trip to Porthtowan . Stopping briefly for a hedgehog ice cream in Chapel Porth .
    This coast line is a surfers paradise . We watched them for some time whilst sat on the cliffs .
    The sunshine arrived in full force at lunchtime and sun cream replaced our cags .
    We got back to Trevaunance Cove at about 4 pm . Worn out .....
    After a brief respite we settled for a evening drink in the pub whilst we mused about what to eat tonight .

    UPDATE...

    We ended up in the Taphouse....a laid back local haunt that has live music. Cornish mussells and fish cakes.... What's not to like?    Baca selengkapnya
