Thursday 11th September – Sunday


Thursday 11th September – Sunday 14th
We were determined on this trip to avoid our old haunts of Perranporth and Newquay so we headed further south to St Ives.  The Sat Nav was hell bent on sending our lovely ‘new’ motorhome into the Atlantic so we ignored it and followed our noses to Polmanter Tourist Park.  The good weather had now tempted more and more ‘Silver Surfers’ to the sands of Cornwall so sites were starting to look a bit fuller. However we still found  a good pitch and were impressed not only with the actual site but the helpfulness of reception staff. Key attractions of the site included  its outdoor pool, spacious pitches and modern bar/ restaurant.  We spent most of our time here walking into St Ives where we tried some of the shops and bars. We also walked about 8 miles to Trencom Hill where we could see both the north and south coasts of Cornwall from the summit.  Another walk we tried took us inland  towards Hayle where we returned along the picturesque coastal path. Carbis Bay proved to be one of the main attractions along this route
