I watched Cornwall on 'Coast' tonight. I have been just across the border to Bude when we stayed in Devon and would love to go again. Cornwall looks stunning. It is so far away from here and takes so long to get there.

We are in Cornwall from 5th-12th for my birthday.Going down with family and friends and staying near Portreath,will definately have a day at Falmouth to see the tall ships.Should be fantasic,nice one beeshette!!

Yeah....just booked a day off work so that we can go too..................the Maritime Museum is worth a visit ,if you have the time of course...........................

Any idea which day is the best beeshette?(We head home on Sat' 12th).
Taking them all to see the Minnack with rounders on the beach and all that sort of thing.Hope the weather is good for us.

I think the Saturday is the 13th not the 12th? Anyway the programme is pretty much the same for each day: Tall ships open to the public,Onboard visits,live music,street theatre,childrens activities etc.
There is a town parade added on the Thursday(11th) and Fireworks on the Friday which should be pretty impressive...... I would think Friday would be good.....................................

beeshette you are right,we come home on Friday 12th,the day you think may be the best! Never mind we will still get down there on one of the other days.
Anything/where worth having a look at?Nice tucked away coves etc.

KYNANCE COVE................Really lovely......nice for swimming.

Oh and COVERACK...out on the LIZARD and CADGWITH.......................................COVERACK is really cute...I can really recommend the YHA ( if it's your thing) great place and good prices,I camped for the week with work and we had a great laugh,the location is fabulous and the village cute.....actually it has a nice old fashioned feel to it,not too much happening but lovely.
Anything else you wanted to know...?

When I lived down there somebody taught me an old smuggling song called The Cadgwith Anthem, which was rather groovy.
