1.5 km along the coast and 1.5km Inland.
The weather had been very wet and windy for a few days, but was hopefully getting better. So we had booked-in at the Tristram Campsite, right next to Polzeth beach. We had wanted to try out Frodo, our campervan as it had recently been to a new garage to try to sort out a mystery water leak.
So after an uneventful journey we at the campsite, and as there was a brief period when the fine rain stopped. We walked along the road to Trebetherick and then the short distance down to the car-park at Daymer Bay, which was managed by my Aunt in the 1060’s.
I can remember walking along the path that lead from the car-park to Polzeth. Then there were almost no houses to be seen, but now there are houses well set back, so there is a wide stretch of grass to the right and a series of rocky beaches on the left.
It’s only a mile and a quarter back to Polzeth and the campsite has direct access to the coastal path, so after a brief walk around the village we retreated to the relative comfort of the van as the fine, but persistent rain had re-started.
