This is Doelan the French eqyivalent of Port Issac in as much that they film a French version of Doc Martin here. The fisherman below just landed his catch. The locals were already waiting and he sold out!!

6 August - Pedn Vounder beach, Penberth Cove, and the Merry Maidens

A suggestion from the Wild Swim Coast book - a beautiful sandy bay with tricky access off the coastal path. Not a descent for those with vertigo, as Allan found out....... but well worth the effort.

Its much easier to climb up than down!

Fisherman's cottage at Penberth Cove.






Magical Merry Maidens stone circle.





5 August - Trengwainton Gardens (NT) Madron Well

Isn't it strange that I'm attracted to old scruffy men?

Wishing tree by Madron Holy Well.

The altar with offerings at the nearby ruined chapel.



3 August - East Devon - Donkey Sanctuary and more

We met up with Allan's friends Gary and Mel. Gary's the one on the left. No, that doesn't mean that it's Mel on the right....

View from the coastal path near Budleigh Salterton.


Now in Cornwall - Hayle beach looking over to St Ives.
