Many years Ago (1970/80's) My Family and I would stop at Redruth. After Traveling from Essex. Just to Grab a Meal or just a 'Cornish Cream Tea.'.? Then Continue on to Hayle where we would spend a Couple of Weeks. I being a Boy at that time would buy a Model and a Book. Almost Religiously..! Because Cornwall is Beautiful, Scenic and Quaint. ( Coming from just outside London anyway..!) But the Weather could be Glorious One Day and Not the Next..!! The Sea Mist or Fog would Roll in, August would become November, Overnight. But we loved that part of Uk and Rarely went anywhere Else. Why would you...!! Now in Australia but given the chance I would Return Tomorrow..! Cheers kim in Oz.
on a good day it will take 5 hours to get here from London by car and even longer and more expensive by train. If there's a traffic accident on any part of the journey be prepared to wait and wait in traffic jams and hope for the best.
