Have you ever visited Cornwall

I'm lucky to live in Cornwall and wondered who has visited the county. I'm posting this video because it has some iconic images of Cornwall. The music by the brilliant composer and violinist Sue Aston is called "The Home Coming". Hope you like it as much as I do. (I'm not paid by Cornwall Tourist Board to write this!!)

I adore Cornwall. I've holidayed in Bude a few times and in St Austell (Pentewen) more times than I care to mention.

Boo, you might remember that LLods Bank advert with the black stallion galloping through the surf. That was filmed at Pentewan. I believe that a mare on heat was stationed at the other end of the beach to encourage him in the right direction!

It's all nice.

I'm not exactly sure which hill she is standing on but it would be very close to Penzance. The island with the castle on it is St Michaels Mount which is close to Penzance and you see it in the background once or twice. BTW you can walk over to it at low tide on the causeway but you have to use the ferry when the tide is in!

I've been to Cornwall a few times. Mostly the south eastern coast. I been to the Eden Project and Lost gardens of Heligan twice. I did prefer Heligan though.
I would love to live in Cornwall.

I've had several holidays in Cornwall - love the north coast particularly. Lat time I went we stayed just outside of Port Isaac. Also spent lots of time around St Ives, Newquay, Bude, Hayle and I love the beach at Widemouth Bay.

Cornwall has some beautiful parts, Brian. I've got some pics on my computer that were taken of sunset and beach scenes at sunset - but I can't get them up here!!!! These were taken in and around Newquay, and if I manage to do it - i'll post them!!

Thanks Ice - I hope you can post them. Difficult to imagine lovely sunsets at the moment because it's heavy showers and gales here right now! But yes you can get incredible sunsets over the sea off the north coast of Cornwall and Devon that's for sure.
