Steve and I drove down to Cornwall for a long weekend getaway and a little exploration. We drove down from Newport, Wales, to St. Austell where Jess's boyfriend Matt's parents have a flat which they were kind enough to loan us. Not a bad drive down from Newport (wouldn't want to do it from Blackburn though!).
St. Austell was very pretty, cliffs overlooking the sea and hydrangeas blooming every where. We visited Charleston (by footpath over the cliffs), Lands End (a waste) and Padstoe (lovely and quaint).
Cornwall is beautiful and you could spend a very long time exploring the little back roads. We had a mix of good and less good weather, but were able to get out and walk and spent quite a bit of time driving about with the top down. The beaches were gorgeous, often surrounded by cliffs and the restaurants that we went to were very good.
