Geoffrey Marlowe Hayres

Boscastle to Plymouth early Spring. Last year, Minehead to Boscastle, this year, 2024, Boscastle to Plymouth. First 2 weeks weather atrocious, very strong wind, rain and hail. But how can you appreciate sunny weather if you haven't experienced all that? Last 8 days, apart from a couple of mornings, glorious clear or sunny weather. Some parts of the path dreadful, deep water, one deep wide bog, and huge lengths of mud bordering on quagmire. South Cornwall coast has heaps of lovely towns and villages, quite a few tiny villages with a great cafe for a yummy coffee along the way. Lots of lovely B&Bs and lovely people along the way, as well as some brilliant pubs with fabulous beer! What more could a man want?
