Such a shame you didn't get to enjoy our beautiful Kynance Cove during better weather 🌞 I live in Lizard Village, (you probably drove passed our house 🏡 on the way down to the point and St Wynwallow's Church 😊), and we look out across the fields over the cove from our west facing windows. We've had bright blue skies and no sign of rain for weeks now, but there's always the strong winds 😁 Would be nice to meet up next time you're down this way, when hubby's not at work. We're looking to do a van build ourselves, hence watching channels like yours, so it would be nice to meet other couples that have already done so. Hubby Ian has uploaded quite a few drone videos to this channel including local beaches at sunrise and whilst in his buggy 🛺 and bike 🚲😁

That is the thing that puts me off travelling to Cornwall in our Motorhome. even though it is a sprinter underneath. it is a couple of foot nearly wider that a Sprinter it is based on. It was bad enough going down there in a HGV as we often ended up of the beaten track and would find stone walls hidden at the side of the road ans we would often have to back up when an on coming car was coming towards us, and we often break or bend something on the front of the Cab. That said it is a beautiful part of the Country. One day we will go down there once again, maybe in a similar sized van as yours. I would much rather watch one of your Videos that Judith Charmer's Wish You Were here. which I really liked as a child, but as I have gotten older travelling aboard has no real appeal. To much to explore on our own shores first.
