149 miles walked 481 miles to go (Average 16.5 miles a day)<\/strong><\/p>\n

A thank you to Keith and his 14 year od son for his email about the walk \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

A fine walking day today a bit breezy with a cold wind, so ideal walking weather. I must have met at least 20 day walkers, still yet to meet any one who is walking even for a week.<\/p>\n

I left the Coombe Martin Inn at 9.30ish after a reasonable breakfast and a great nights sleep. Certainly a place to revisit with tripod etc to capture those sunsets over the sea.<\/p>\n

\"Rocky<\/a>
Rocky Valley<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Great walk over High Cliff, nowhere near as bad as the Guide makes out and along to the The Harbour Light Tea Rooms for scones & \u00a0tea. The tea rooms now fully restored after the disastrous flood in 2004<\/a>\u00a0then onwards to Tintagel where the footpath became quite busy for the first mile. With the Rocky Valley as an highlight. Finally arriving in Tintagel and the thronging masses. I quickly escaped and continued onto Trebarwith Strand to be met with the shock of a lifetime. The Port William PH was wanting \u00a390 a night for b&b quickly reduced to \u00a380 for a singleton, I quickly showed him my heels. Walking up the hill I checked out The Mill Houses Inn, a similar story after much pressure he came down to \u00a369 so up the hill again, all the b&bs were closed. I rounded the corner to find the Atlantic View Hote<\/a>l, entering the building was like stepping back to the real England we oldies cherish \u00a0\ud83d\ude42 in fact I must confess it reminded me of Fawlty Towers, However, Rosemary & John are the epitome of\u00a0professionalism, they only did full board but for a very reasonable price of \u00a368 a night. Including a 5 course dinner<\/a> (totally amazing food too) + cheese,s. All I can say is WOW \u00a0See the header<\/a> for my dinner \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
