A weekend in Cornwall
11-13 MARCH 2016
DAY 1-2
London - Penzance
To make the most of the few days available, we leave late in the evening and travel during the night, making only a short stop along the way. We arrive in the morning in St. Ives a village of cottages in brick painted white that shine on the green cliffs. Between the houses, the grassy expanses lashed by the wind and a beautiful cliff with some waterfall on the sea, we take a walk in the sun of Cornwall.
We buy a couple of the not-to-be-missed savoury pastries from a small bakery serving delicious local specialties.
LUNCH: Pengenna Patries
In the early afternoon we follow a short trek that reaches, through a tree-lined valley that follows the course of a river, St Nectan's Glen Waterfall, a picturesque waterfall between musk walls. We arrive in the evening in Penzance, a town on the North coast, where we stay in a country cottage lost in the woods, in a nice outbuilding.
HOTEL: B&B: Trevaylor Vean
DAY 3
Land's End - London
In the morning we take a walk along the coast, and then we take the car back to Land's End, the iconic name for the westernmost United Kingdom country.
Here Britain officially ends, so what to do if not go back to Penzance, where we still take a walk on the coast to St Michael's Mount, a homonymous place like the most famous French twin, located in an area now invaded by the tide, now left uncovered. We return to London in the late evening.
