Visiting Cornwall

We've had another break for a few day.  This time going down to Cornwall and an area we haven't really stopped at before.  Our hotel break was at the Whitsand Bay Hotel, Torpoint.  A lovely location.....

where a certain lurcher enjoyed his stay

and fun on a different beach

To be honest, I wasn't sure whether to add all the Cornwall pictures
to one post...but thought it would go on too long

so I have decided to do bite sized posts.

Starting with our walk at

Rame Head

We set out from the car park next to the NCI base

....and walked across the fields and moorland - with Dartmoor ponies doing a good job grazing down the vegetation - they took no notice of us, they were too busy munching.

and on across towards the former chapel on the hill

the views were stunning, even on an overcast day

 there had obviously been a first floor to this building, going on the recesses in the walls

(how did William get into this blog - again!!)

Heading back up to the coastguard base

 and the dartmoor's were ahead of us

lovely ponies

 we thoroughly enjoyed our walk

and it was good exercise too.
