One Christmas we rented a tiny cottage near Tintagel (legendary home of King Arthur)
Can't remember the name of the hamlet - it was one of those many, many "Tre..." places. Delabole, England's oldest working slate mine, was just round the corner --
A few years later we went with friends in springtime and stayed at the Gurnard's Head Inn, south of St Ives.
You can walk over the fields - among cows - to Gurnard's Head, which is National Trust open land. This painting by Paul Lewin reminds me of the many wild flowers we saw there in May.
The views along the coast are fabulous. Can't find my own photos; this is from a kayaking site.
