Sunny Sunday.


There's nothing better than a sunny Sunday spent walking along the beach or exploring little towns & villages. Living in Cornwall I am lucky to have so many places like this to visit & I really should do it more often. Now that the weather is getting better (finally!) I hope to be spending my days off exploring & taking pictures alot more!
Today my Mum & Alf visited us so we decided to take a trip to Port Isaac which is a small picturesque fishing village in North Cornwall. It has become very well known over the past few years as it is where the popular TV series Doc Martin was filmed. I haven't watched it myself but visiting there today made me really interested to start watching it! Is it on Netflix? ;)
Unfortunately we failed & didn't end up taking any pictures whilst we were here & didn't even take a picture of our cream tea! What a failure! 

We then moved onto Polzeath to get some food in the Oyster Catcher which is becoming quite frequent lately! We decided to grab a table outside & make the most of the sunshine,trying to ignore the wind! ;) We all went for burgers as their burgers are just amazing! This time I went for the Halloumi burger as I have a slight obsession with it at the moment! 
After we had been fed & watered we took a walk down onto the beach & even had a paddle! It may be the first one this year actually! We then grabbed a lemonade in the Waterfront Cafe & headed back home where we chilled & then said goodbye to my Mum & Alf.

I am now sat typing this with a very red nose from the sun,about to put some jacket potatoes on for tea & relax with Jon watching the rest of Breaking Bad for the night.
A perfect Sunday in my eyes! :)  



How did you spend your Sunday?! :)

A Wintery Beach Walk.

These pictures were taken back in November but I have only just uploaded them to my mac,oops!

It was a crisp,fresh winters day which is my favorite type of weather,when the sun is out but you still have to wrap up extra warm because its freezing. It was a Sunday too which is even better so we decided to head out for a walk,living in Cornwall we are spoilt for choice over different beaches etc to have a walk around. 
Firstly we headed to Mawgan Porth beach where we got caught in a horrendous downpour whilst walking across the beach! We found shelter in a cave & then rang back to the car to avoid another soaking,stopping off in one of the little beach huts to get a good 'ole Cornish pasty & sausage roll first of course! ;)

Next up we stopped off at Harlyn Bay which is definitely one of my favourite beaches although its best to avoid it in the summer because of the masses of people & ridiculous parking prices. Just go in the winter,the parking is free & its not super busy! We had a walk along the beach & then headed up along the coastal path where you get some amazing views. I spent a good 15 minutes sat on a bench on the cliff edge watching the surfers in the freezing waters & the waves crashing against the rocks whilst Jon went off exploring! 


We then went to Padstow,had a walk around the shops & stopped for an ice cream. By this time it was starting to get dark & the rain was in for the night so we then headed home! 

Have any of you visited these places or planning to this year?

Free tickets to Boardmasters!

It was the day before Boardmasters & I recieved a phonecall from my boyfriend asking if I wanted to go to Boardmasters the next day as he had been given 2 free tickets in work. Of course I replied yes!!
I have never actually been to the main Boardmasters part as it is always sooo expensive & I enjoy the beach sessions & the freebies at Fistral Beach more without paying through the roof for entry! But seeing as they were free,who would say no?!
All we had to do was go to The Co-operative Food tent at 1pm where we got to have a free meal at the Tweet4atable pop-up restaurant. If you're unsure what this is then click on the link or visit their twitter for a chance to win!
