Stayed in Harlyn Bay bit up the coast from Newquay in May, there are some unreal beaches on that coastline mate, wetsuts on in the day fishing gear at night Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 26,352 Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I just carry half the contents of my house into the local woods and camp rough. If the weather or the kids become unbearable the tent goes down and we are off. I'd be home on day 1 with my kids......... only joking mate thats the way forward I reckon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Cornwall is excellent, my mother loves the Treasure Park at Redruth, got some beautiful pearls there, my wife got a perfect round one, half blue and half green, really lovely one, only paid a few quid for it on the lucky dip pick an oyster thing! Best Cornish Pasties are from the West End Bakery in Redruth too, proper Pasties, cheap, just pack an appetite! Edited August 31, 2011 by secretagentmole Quote Link to post Share on other sites
