Padstow's pretty good for aerobatic seagulls too!

Thanks for all the mentions, I have saved them all on my Google Map App thingy and can clearly see a good few routes to take now! Now all I need is a recommendation of a good restaurant for Thursday eve (Mrs B's birthday!) or it may all be in vain |

Two good hotel restaurants, both with great sea views, are the Headland at Newquay and the Carbis Bay Hotel near St. Ives. Idle Rocks at St. Mawes used to be excellent but they've recently changed their head chef so I'm not sure about the new man. None of these is cheap but they're good.

We are staying on a farm near St Just for the week. Off to the Minnack open-air theatre later in the week to see "taming of the shrew". I hope it doesn't rain. Trying out a local real ale free house nearby tonight at Trewellard as it is within walking distance. Walked to the Levant tin mine today to see the steam winding engine in action - free if you are a National Trust member.

That sounds good! My favourite local ale comes in bottle only, called Cornish Mutiny from the Wooden Hand Brewery in Truro. Luvverly |

Well, just returned from a mostly dry Cornwall. 950 miles round trip, 6+ hours each way. Plenty of memories and fantastic driving conditions with all those less than single lane roads (more like paths) up and over many hills!! Not used to hills here in the east! Anyway thanks for all the suggestions, we managed to get to most, if not all and some new ones thanks to Google maps. Here is a quick shot taken from the Falmouth Ferry on Wed.
