Back from the West

Penmarlan farm was also close to Polperro and the coast path that wends it way up and down to it. Parking at yet another Nation Trust carpark we discovered a peaceful campsite well worth remembering. Only drawback is the approach lane with a width approximately the same as our caravan. Path down to Lansallos beach was lined with activity logs, swing and see-saw, tempting the fool hardy (Lesley) to take part. This time we turned right and followed the coast path for several miles before taking a circular route back to our car. The next day we turned right to take the coast path all the way to Polperro where a few grockles were milling in the now, heavy rain. Sheltered in an excellent cafe for dinner before walking around the harbour and back to the coast path before retracing our steps.

Despite a little mizzel on the way back the path was beautiful with wild flowers in abundance. Well earned stop and a cold paddle at the secluded Lansallos beach before finding the car and back to Penmarlen Farm.
Next day was an awning down before a drive back half way to Somerset, avoiding the mass exodus from Glastonbury. Strange little site in the middle of nowhere but just 6 miles from the A303. This was our route back home in the morning, ensuring we get back in time for football.............!
