Got Lost Twice! - St Mawgan and Vale of Lanherne: CORNWALL WALK
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 май 2019
- We try out a new book in our walk today: Top Walks in Mid Cornwall. See how we get on exploring the beautiful Vale of Lanherne near St Mawgan. St Mawgan is a pretty little village with a tangible community focused around the church, school and village pub - a country idyll but so close to Newquay airport!
The Vale of Lanherne is quiet and calming. The walk follows the river Menalhyl through pretty woodland and we explore an abandoned mill. In the second half of the walk, we catch glimpses of the sea and cross two fords before making our way back to the pretty little village of St Mawgan.
Disclosure: We were sent this book by the author, Liz Hurley, free of charge. The author will be updating the instructions.

I love the English countryside and there is not the faintest chance of me exploring more than a little of it myself, so thank you for giving me an opportunity to experience places so far from where I live.
As a a kid in the 70's I used to take a small churn of milk round to the Nuns after milking in the morning, and the exchange of churns happened in silence from behind a screen!
Saw several spots where we built dens in the hedges, fields where I remember helping with haymaking and playing.
Really enjoyed your film, Thanks.
You're welcome! I hope it brought back some happy memories, Sarah :)
We are now in our mid eighties and not able to get about so much, but your videos bring back memories of our holidays, our favourite walk was from Mylor village to the Pandora for coffee on the pontoon. It would be wonderful to see you do that.Thank you for all the effort that it takes to make such beautiful pictures
I know the walk that you mean! We also love that walk - great for crabbing on the old quay! Undoubtedly, we will film this walk but after your comment, I think we will move it up the list. It should be relatively quiet during the summer months and maybe even 'tranquil'!?! Sarah :)
As a former owner of St Mawgan Village Store it’s lovely to see this short video of one of the most beautiful places on earth.
I went to school next door. in the 60s.
We go on holiday too Cornwall annually and the St Mawgan tea room is our favourite spot for cream teas. They do a sweet and savoury one and both are as divine as they look.
Great video! I grew up in St. Mawgan (actually, in Higher Tolcarne - you passed by my cottage), went to the little school in the Village. We used to attend church at the Convent. The Carmelites, sadly, have moved on, but the Convent is now run by the Sisters of St. Francis of the Sacred Heart. There’s a RUclips video about them - search for ‘St. Mawgan Convent. The route you took from Higher Tolcarne back to St. Mawgan was exactly the route my sister and I would take from our cottage (Lilac Cottage) to school. Thank you ever so much. Aaaah, childhood memories.....
A lovely place to live and grow up! Sarah :)
CWT at its best! ^-^ Very entertaining!
Liking "CWT"! Sarah :)
This was so useful to me before trying the circular walk from Mawgan Porth to St Mawgan yesterday as the instructions were far from clear but having viewed this I was OK
You do a fantastic job guys.
Thank you! Sarah :)
A very enjoyable walking video.just awesome,brilliant outtakes
Another gorgeous walk, if a little confusing at times! Still...getting a bit lost all adds to the adventure !! Loved the outtakes!!... reckon Andrew's having a few too many cider breaks on these walks.....😂😂
How did you guess ......
You have me giggling at the outtakes! Black Adder...one of my other half's favourite comedy programmes from the past! Always quoting from it! ''My Lord, I have a cunning plan!!'' ....We have got lost countless times on walks too!
Hi Judy, Congrats on your tickets by the way! We have applied this morning for the Cornish Premier - fingers crossed!! ;)
OOOOH! Really hope you get some Sarah! I remember you went to the last season premiere. Fingers crossed...good luck! x J x
That's a brilliant walk, thank you.
Pam (my late Wife) & I did that walk, & the pub, but we went by local bus.
Sometimes it's possible to use local transport so avoiding the return walking.
Again, thank you.
Wow, what a fabulous walk; so tranquil and beautiful, and lanes almost free of traffic. The river scene at the end was wonderful. These are the parts of Cornwall we love. Well done to Andrew for getting the lines right, eventually; you must have so much fun filming! Thank you for another enjoyable video.
Cornwalls countryside at its very best. A part of Cornwall I have never been to and I loved the “stations of the cross” the last time I saw this was in Jerusalem. I agree with you about the cemetery......”spooky” and I din’t like the ‘skull and crossbones ‘ weird ehh? I think that it has sewn the seed in my mind that I would like to go to St Meagan and take a further look. To sum up an enjoyable video.
The tearoom is beautiful! Sarah :)
Lovely beautiful place thank for sharing xx👍👍👍👍
You always make a great tourism videos and I always look forward to the fun you put in them. Enjoy the weekend, Greetings, Julie.
Hi Julie, Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed our silly shenanigans! Sarah :)
Enjoying your videos from Arizona USA!
Did not mind getting lost....its so beautiful out there. Well done. 👍👍
Free car park, like the sound of that! I love this time of year, so colourful, lush and vibrant and this was a great example of that. I also did not even know Newquay had an airport. The tearooms looked superb, what a perfect lunch spot. I must agree with the walk instructions as only a 7 out of 10 but the walk itself looked brilliant. I always enjoy a few bloopers 😂. Cheers Alan
yeh, great walk! So I am now curious - do you have enough bloopers to make an episode? Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails- Funny you should say that, I have another two videos filmed and edited and the second one, has a few bloopers at the end lol. Not out for another 2 weeks yet though :o)
I would love to visit that wonderful place💚someday.if I can ever get the time to travel again? I'm on the other side of the Atlantic...
So nice video and such a lovely place :-) We were at Mawgan Porth last year but we were only having an overnight stay during our walk along the South West Coastal Path and didn't explore the neighbourhood. Now you did it for us :) Thank you :)
The outtakes! Lol!! Andrew a two headed horse🤣
Great walk and surroundings both, a nice mixture of countryside and unique places...I agree too that cemetery was bizarre! Kind regards, Simon 😀👍💕
We have now found out... it is the catholic cemetery, hence separate from the church but close to the convent, Sarah :)
Another excellent video 👍
Great walk guys, keep an eye on hubby, think hes drinking again 😎🤣😘😘
Yeh, I think he snuck in the pub! Sarah :)
Another great video, I love your Lord Percy impression Sarah :)
This area looks as lovely as I hoped it would. It’s described really wonderfully in Robin Jones’ book “Cornwall’s Secret Coast” in the chapter entitled “Cornwall’s Loveliest Vale”. The pub looks like my kind of pub!
Pub looked great - I agree! Two great options in the village for food! Sarah :)
What a lovely cardigan you are wearing. That book does not sound like such a good choice, tempo limit signs can change and in the beginning there was already trouble finding the path.
With some of his jokes , it makes me think your his Carer taking out on a daytrip lol . Starting to love the vids ( i'm a late comer to the party ) was wondering , was that book by thee Liz Hurley =-P
Beautiful vdo oosm standards like it💯👍
Did you not upload a video last Friday?
Hi there, lovely to hear from you! We are taking a bit of a break, had a foreign holiday! Sarah :)
Not THE Liz Hurley surely?!
Is the nearby Airforce base still active there ?
Hi Dave, yes, It's an ex-military base now a provincial, commercial airport bringing tourists in. I think it has one of the longest runways and they can use it for larger passenger planes. Great facility! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails thankyou for this info Sarah and Andrew..😉👍🇭🇲
As far as I know it still is raf st mawgan but leased out to Newquay airport nimrods used to fly there
Andrew missed a gag there - something along the lines of "Carmelites - there aint nun"
Puntastic or should I say Nuntastic! No maybe not! Sarah :)
That's my cousins house by the Lawreys Mill public footpath sign, not that any one is interested.
That's a lovely part pf Cornwall to live! Sarah :)
💟💟💟
7 out of 10? You are way too nice, there seemed so much wrong with the path ...
There was some discussion about the score! Quite a lot of discussion about the score! Sarah :)
