I managed to escape from the endless to-do list to go to Portwrinkle - just 20 mins drive east of here. This is where the locals go to avoid 'the madding crowd' of Looe and Seaton in the height of summer - a lovely crescent-shaped beach with greenery right down to the shore. The water is so beautifully clean and clear here - probably because the beach is small shingle/gritty sand - and I couldn't resist a dip. Not as bitingly cold as expected for this time of year - no doubt because the sea had come up over hot shingle - so I even managed to swim a few strokes! Utterly gorgeous!

A trip to MOT my partner's car gave us an opportunity for a walk down over the field down towards Looe - with a stunning view of Looe Island - then back along the wooded coastal path towards Plaidy, just east of Looe. We took the rough path, with its tiny little steps, down to the beach and enjoyed a walk along the sand and shingle in warm sunshine.

Amelanchier blossom catching the early morning sun in front of Sunflowers Barn. So gorgeous here at this time of year - bluebells in the little woodland next door and primroses still going mad all over the place! We still have vacancy for May bank holiday weekend (or week) if you want to come and enjoy.

Fanatastic new playground opened at Widegates, just over a mile from here. I had a brilliant time there with my nephew and family last Saturday, when the weather was amazingly good. There's something there for all ages, from tiny tots to grown-ups: swings, climbing frames, monkey bars, 3 slides (small, medium and slightly scary!) and even a zip wire. Their kids are 7 and 10yrs old. We spent a long time there and it was hard to prize them away. I pass it regularly on my way into Liskeard - and might even re-visit on my own.🙂🙃😲😵‍💫😃 . . . . . . .

Wishing a very Happy New Year to our loyal band of page followers!
We've just discovered a woodland we've never been to before - 'High Wood' - just the other side of Liskeard. Mostly conifers but very atmospheric and an easy walk - and we had the place all to ourselves. We love finding even more places to walk in this lovely area of Cornwall - not called 'The Forgotten Corner' for nothing.

We went to Golitha Falls this afternoon. Beautiful! These beechwoods are going to look even more spectacular when the leaves change colour in late October/early November - and they're just 20 mins drive from here.
