Hi, i’m back in Birmingham! the 5-weeks-back-home-trip was really fun. I know I owed way too many stories and it’s gonna take a while to pay. Thank goodness fast connection of internet is my company so life is easier now, thus I can write happily! As I remember, it was 5 or 6 weeks back my friends and I made it to Cornwall to have a Cornish holiday. At first we actually contemplated either going south or north (lake district, etc) then we came up with south (Cornwall) decision merely because we were dying to see beach. I was in charge of browsing and picking up places to visit which got me really over the moon! So, here’s the route. Birmingham – Polperro – St. Mount’s Michael – Minack Theatre – Land’s End – Penzance – St. Ives all in 3 days journey.

First day, journey to Polperro (about 30 minutes from Plymouth where we stayed in) took about 4 hours and we drove 227 miles to get there. Polperro is a small village, belongs to Looe as a bigger district. When we arrived exactly in Polperro, I at first vagued that my thirst for beach/sea views could be fulfilled. I could only sense the village view, which was also nice and beautiful but the way, but still not beach or sea! However, my curiosity was too deep that we asked the local people if there was harbour there and the guy gave us direction to the harbour. As soon as we reached the harbour I couldn’t quite believe what I see. It was really beautiful and peaceful that I felt like I didn’t want to leave the place. I was astonished!

It was a shame we arrived quite late to the site in which many shops and attractions have already closed and the visitors were only a few. Hence, it wasn’t too lively by the time we arrived. But after all, I really liked the place. Going further the harbour, we saw cliff and climbed on it. Below the cliff was a sea! woohoo.  Seriously it’s so much relaxing and peaceful standing up on the cliff and hearing the sound of wave hitting the rocks and cliffs. It’s like we’re on the top of the world haahaha (well, sounds a bit lame) The wind was not too harsh on our visit and everybody was happy. Staying overnight just nearby the harbour of the Polperro would really be more exciting but we’ve booked rooms in Plymouth so time to go back. To top this visit off, we also made a go for local fresh food (mainly seafood dishes) in a bar near the harbour, the blue peter inn bar. yummy! different taste from what I usually had. You definitely have to pay a visit to Polperro. It won’t let you down trust me.
