dytkos 17,569 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 No hunting on this trip, quite fancy some cliff top walks. Shame I could have took you for a day with a choice of three foxhound packs. Anywhere in Cornwall is pretty good for cliff top walks. Do you want hotel, caravan, holiday cottage? I know several good places to stay all over the county, where do you fancy? Cheers, D. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lid 194 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 This place belongs to some friends of mine and as well as the cottages to rent, they have in indoor pool which is great in bad weather. It's right on top of the picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey and several major attractions nearby. Coastal walks via the farm itself. Looks just the sort of place i'm looking for. They also have a small camp site, but I am not sure when it closes. I can't get you any discount I'm afraid, and I don't get anything for referrals, but if you do want to mention that you were recommended, the owners, Tim and Sally, know me by my real name of Leighton. And if you want to go to the North coast, it's only about 45 mins. Another place we have enjoyed staying in the past, but don't know what it's like now, is Llanhydrock Farm cottages, here - again also a working farm. However they look almost booked for end of September. Both Bodrugan and Llanhydrock used to advertise with cottage companies, but both have now gone it alone. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ginga john 268 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Anywhere along the Roseland peninsular all the way along to St Mawes, then get the ferry across to Falmouth for a day trip 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nik_B 3,790 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Lizard peninsular , or perran sands. Worth noting that The sea off Perran sands can be very dangerous. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
