I have travelled all around Cornwall and I am still in awe of its beauty, every turn in the road every corner I come around has a new and beautiful view.
Oh how beautiful Cornwall is. If you have not visited it do. You will never regret it. Cornwall is full of history, scenery to take the breath away, and the friendliest of people. This video shows some of the scenery, but you should see it from the ground!
Wow! This made me cry because I miss this region so much, I've been there this spring and it was magnificient! Hope to be there real soon, I've lost my heart to Cornwall!
Love Corwall and love living here. If you want a place to relax and enjoy a slower pace of life, come to Cornwall! Here at Callestock Courtyard Cottages it's just what we offer! Cheers Liz
I Miss Cornwall so much!! Such a beautiful place! Chilled out way of life and the people are friendly!! :-D Used to live there but had to move to London due to work :-(
@computerchris122 Sweet. My gran was born in 1901 (died before I was born) her whole family had just come up from there. She'd cook so many Cornish recipies, unfortunately the only ones she passed onto my mum were saffron cake and pasties. She used to ask her to bring back some Klidgy rock whenever my mum went down to mousehole. My gran was a strict methodist apparently. The whole family were strict and slightly uppercrust, lol.
@myrddinwilt49 ha ha good on you. I can never decide if I like pasties more when they are hot or cold? They're nice hot with a mug of tea but also nice cold with a picnic on the moors over Pensilva. I miss Cornwall, a very special place, one of my favourites places I have lived. Back for a holiday soon I hope. I was married there too. Magical Cornwall was good to me.
You can have a fabulous holiday in Cornwall,or indeed other parts of the U.K. just as good,even better than abroad,just one provisor - the weather!!! but just try getting it.
@myrddinwilt49 Will probably spend most of my time in St.Ives, which isn't quite as quiet, but am hoping to see a few other places up to Port Isaac if possible. It is very beautiful, and yes, some places reminiscent of an earlier time, but will have to experience it to form my own thoughts about it. Looking forward to it very much...thanks for you reply!
@auntdj111 No drama. I''bve seen a lot of places in Europe and the world and Cornwall is worth a visit. There are lots of other beauty spots on the way there and back that I'd reccommend too. Just let me know. Have a good one
@myrddinwilt49 What's a carpet bagger? Do you know where it comes from? It is a shame that so many people buy holiday homes there and drive up the prices if the houses. They do it abroad as well. Spain, Italy Croatia and many more places are full of holiday homes in villages that have all but lost theor character. It's so sad. They should rent and be happy I think. Therew are still plenty of Cornish on trhe coast too though
@myrddinwilt49 Definately kindred spirits. They did a blood dna test on people right across the country, it was shown in the program the face of britain presented by Neil Oliver, and found that the population of Cornwall and pretty much all of Devon too was completely of the pre-roman native population that we call Celts, but the further east you went from Devon the more Anglo-Saxon/Norman the population became.
@auntdj111 If you want any advice on spots to visit feel free to mail me. It's a stunning county, one of the nicest in England I think. Northumbria is stunning too, ah there are so many beautiful spots lol
@computerchris122 my family originate from Hayle, the family name was Penberthy, they were mostly engineers working with copper, building ship engines etc, till the work dried up and they all moved to Plymouth at around 1900 and have been here ever since. Any Penberthy's or traditional old school people left there? Cos I'm trying to find family on that side of my history
This is gorgeous. Does anyone know where the area is from about 5:23-5:35? Also, where in the tape is St. Ives-the busy port in the beginning? I am thinking of going at some point.
