Rinsey to Wheal Trewavas – walking Mounts bay
Our last walk before lockdown was along was the cliffs of Mounts Bay near Rinsey on a perfect autumn day. There was such a treasure trove of sparkling seas, rugged cliffs and “poldarkesque” melancholy to explore along this spectacular route.

Two easy walks from Perranuthnoe
As spring turned into summer, we’ve managed to squeeze in three lovely walks along the south west coastal footpath. Each walk has been very different and each walk is quite short (about a mile or so).
Carn Galver to Porthmoina Cove
Carn Galver to Porthmoina Cove is a perfect short walk embracing a quintessentially ruined tin mine and the sea. it’s easy to find, just beside the B3036 that runs between Land’s End to St Ives.

Sancreed or Chapel Downs Holy Well
To explore the holy wells of Cornwall is a chance to find quiet contemplative places away from the bustle of tourism and daily life. Sancreed or Chapel Downs Holy Well is one of the most easily accessed – although the setting has been heavily influenced by the Victorian clergyman’s idea of a garden
Exploring Chun Castle and Quoit
There are so many fascinating Ancient Sites to explore in West Cornwall.. We revisited the once mighty Iron Age fort of Chun Castle set beside the remarkable preserved Chun Quoit, in a commanding position high on the downs, with spectacular views over West Penwith.
