Love your coastal walks, the scenery is so dramatic and atmospheric, a far cry from life in Central England cities, cannot wait to make the escape back down to Cornwall in June.
Well done for managing to avoid the worst of this month's rain down in this part of Cornwall - it's been positively biblical most days. you got off quite lightly. Fab walk, as ever. Many thanks for your company (and the dramatic input...!)
Hi Sarah and Andrew 😊 I have followed you for a good few years now - and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your beautiful funny entertaining bloggs. I absolutely love CORNWALL. You are both so lovely! And very very VERY lucky to live in Kernow!! I actually first went to St Ives when I was 3 !!!!! Now aged 60 I still love it as much as I did then 😅. I tried EVERYTHING to live in Kernow but sadly it never happened. Keep on smiling and WALKING!!!! 🚶♀️ 🚶 🥰🥰. Maureen from Liverpool xxx
This is a very beautiful area. I have walked there, and will again in June. The story about the wrecker is really interesting. I have heard that these stories are exaggerated and that they actually didn't kill the people who were on the boats, but perhaps they did... It is described in detail in the book "Jamaica Inn" of Daphne Du Maurier, and also more than hinted about in the Poldark series. Even if these are fiction stories, there may be some truth to it. At least you made a very interesting vidao, as you always do. And these old books are real treasures. Thank you. Torunn 🥰
How awesome to own a Victorian book with the owner’s name and date written inside. Then to find his gravestone. Great history today…Fisherman’s Friends…” on top of Cape Cornwall “. Wonderful Cornish song. Beautiful scenery…always enjoy your videos…thanks.
Brilliant walk, fantastic story, and amazing scenery. Love the links between the author of your book, the landscape, St Just Church and his gravestone, and the fact that his personal, inscribed copy of the book has found a worthy appreciative home in your collection. St Just & Cape Cornwall are beautiful places that I first came across 30yrs ago. I have distinct memories of it being an Indian Summer in October with blazing blue skies, incredible heat and St Just town centre seeming like the Mediterranean! Though not considering myself very 'religious' these days I always pay a vist to the St Just church and say prayers for family & friends...it's a very 'grounding' place and space :)
Agan great story telling Sarah -you are both very talented when it comes to bringing history to life & your books are super references. You are both good custodians of these books and they are providing a wonderful backdrop to the fantastic scenery of Cornwall, Cape Cornwall and St Just are beautiful, rugged and atmospheric, more so with the ‘odd’ weather we have been having all year. This video has really focused my mind as I have ancestors who lived in St Just with the surname of ‘James” - unfortunately that is where my memory ends but I a romantic enough to think that there is a connection with your video. Great story - Thank you
That is indeed a stunning view! At first the big house made me think of Wuthering Heights, but the light interiors changed the mood. What a great story! It sounds like the kind of tale that would make a good opera!
I've said it before, sorry for being boring but this was just like doing a walk with friends. Lovely ! In the past my wife and I have walked the entire SWCP and these days we try to return to Cornwall from France, where we live, in order to cherry-pick our favourite walks to do them again. In June we hope to be back walking a combination of coastal walks and country walks that you have shown us. Thank you so much.
Hi Sarah and Andrew. I loved your walk so relaxing with amazing views and interesting history. Hope you are both well now as you sound a lot better than last week.
Free Parking?!!! Wow...not much of that about these days!! Fabulous story of old Cornwall & actually finding the grave too. Love your tales and even the black clouds appeared on cue to make it more dramatic. We have actually had two days of sunshine in Kent. Can't believe it! x J x
Hi Sarah and Andrew….lovely, scary, amazing, story! Love the church was so antique…so lovely….thank you for sharing the story…kept us listening until the end! Lovely that you can keep the book (1873) for many many years to come! Be well 🌼(Ana)
Absolutely loved your video. Another great adventure and so interesting about the wreckers..never knew that .. also love the story about the house and the Debeers diamond background.. thank you so much. I always look forward to your videos.
Thanks great place were planning to visit now I think that free carpark drew us in lol. Nothing is free in Cornwall 😅😅😅😅 We're down next bank holiday can't wait. Kev
We’ve often wondered what the big house was, we thought it was the clubhouse for the golf course, it’s a tad outside our price range. You’re definitely best walking from St Just to Cape Cornwall, the narrow lane is a real pain in a car. Great video as usual!
We were a bit short of money in the early 90's so I did potato harvesting around Kelynack it was hot dusty and windy so the boys were quite black at the end of the day, mermaids pool down at Priests Cove was a welcome end to the day on occasion. Two of my favourite books are Wild Life at the Land's End by John Coulson Tregarthen, which is a challenging read if you do not like hunting and Deep Down, a Tale of the Cornish Mines, by R.M. Ballantyne. My friend who opened the Tremeneer sculpture Garden made me aware of the uncelebrated life of Hugh Seymour Tremenheere, Founder of H.M. Inspectorate of Mines and the Work of the First Inspector Hugh Seymour Tremenheere to improve working conditions in the mines. this might prove a good bit of research for a video? This was a wonderful video and nicely made. Had to Laugh at Andrews Camborne comment...
Very interesting story, lovely stroll in beautiful surroundings, and fabulous view from that impressive mansion house on the hill, those storm clouds looked menacing, thanks 🙏 for indulging us with another strange happening in this Cornish Cove, pleased you have both recovered nicely from covid and back on track👍 but minus the delightful mud-babies 🤗
@@CornishWalkingTrails Hi. Sarah, thanks for the reply, haven’t been so well the last couple of weeks, haven’t been on YT much, Philip sent a small donation on my behalf hope you received it, take care, see you next time 🤗
Lovely spot we have stayed in Escalls just a short way down the coast. In St just faddens pasties I can highly recommend. But you might have to order it they're often sold before they are baked...
Wonderful video ,quite a scary story today ,but I loved it ,based in one of my favourite places ,have stayed in the holiday let’s opposite the golf course ,and walked down to priest cove in the fog ,very atmospheric and creepy, thank you so much for doing these lovely walks and talks for us ,especially as we are landlocked in the midlands 😂
Furthermore my investigations reveal the titles of the first series shown on the BBC were as follows : Ghost Ship (18.2.62); Press Gang (29.4.62 and Man Overboard (13.5.62). All very strange. Nothing to indicate that Horatio Pugwash was a Cornish man but apparently his arch rival Cut Throat Jake did speak with a West Country accent!
How spooky that whilst you were regaling this tale ,a brooding black cloud appears over the very church he should have been buried in! Witchcraft ? Nah, just the great British weather. Strange all the same. Brilliant tale well told. Keep 'em coming
Excellent story Guys! Its a wild old place down there....lovely house, but must be so windswept most of the time. Wouldn't be for me - if I had £5 million! Has Andrew got his taste back after the illness? Didn't see him tucking into a Warren's, St Just Pasty . Sarah, you sound more like your old self now, so getting there....where are the Spaniel's? I expected that you would mention Jethro, but on checking my facts - despite his many references to St Just, he was actually born in St Buryan!
Yes, Jethro is indeed a St Buryan boy! We are both on the mend thank you! although Andrew still has a lingering cough and no sense of smell so no hankering for a pasty yet! Sarah :)
Hi Roger thanks for your message. No you haven’t missed it. Unfortunately our computer stopped working this week and we haven’t been able to get it fixed, so I have not been able to edit a video this week. I have put a post out tonight on Facebook to explain as a few people have asked about this. Hopefully we will be back to normal soon. Thanks Sarah 🙂
What lovely scenery, and a gripping story as well! Many thanks for bringing both to us. ❤
I love the story and ending with a strike of lightening
It's lovely seeing places I have visited and learning more about them. Thank you both
Love your coastal walks, the scenery is so dramatic and atmospheric, a far cry from life in Central England cities, cannot wait to make the escape back down to Cornwall in June.
Have a wonderful time! Sarah :)
I went in June too. Lovely break from Croydon on sludge.
One of our favourite parts of Cornwall .... great story ... thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Sarah :)
Lovely little town not a bad chippy there as well on the square nice old chapel down at cape Cornwall
Kurt Jackson has an amazing art gallery there too. I love all the old books you pick up. Thanks again for a lovely walk.
Rumour had it that every exhibition he earned enough to buy a small house! Always wondered if that rumour was true - imagine! 😂Sarah :D
wow, enthralled by this walk and story 🐷🖤🏴☠⚰
Well done for managing to avoid the worst of this month's rain down in this part of Cornwall - it's been positively biblical most days. you got off quite lightly. Fab walk, as ever. Many thanks for your company (and the dramatic input...!)
Biblical is the right way to describe it! Better weather this week though! Sarah :)

Wow what a story I definitely was hooked on this one.
Glad you enjoyed it! Sarah :)
Excellent
That was so fun to watch, thanks Sarah and Andrew! How very strange that the sky turned dark for your story!😯😅
Yes it was! And so atmospheric to boot! Sarah :)
Wow what a story.
A cracking yarn and a beautiful walk. Thank you both, and greetings from Bodmin Moor - the remote bit!
Our pleasure! Sarah :)

The road is a bit tight especially in summer when the traffic is more frequent! Sarah :)
Love walking around Cape Cornwall and also to the cairns high above Tregesal. Where are the pouches?
Great story, well researched.

Glad you enjoyed it, a little touch of Cornwall! Sarah :)
CORNISH CHUFF SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING FROM A CARRY ON FILM 😂
Thanks , an interesting walk.
Glad you enjoyed it, Sarah :)
The Black Pig was the name of Captain Pugwash's boat in the animated series and that was a load of fiction as well. Both good stories though. Thanks.
Furthermore my investigations reveal the titles of the first series shown on the BBC were as follows : Ghost Ship (18.2.62); Press Gang (29.4.62 and Man Overboard (13.5.62). All very strange. Nothing to indicate that Horatio Pugwash was a Cornish man but apparently his arch rival Cut Throat Jake did speak with a West Country accent!
Ahhh! Jim lad! I guess the writer had to be inspired by something! Sarah :)
How spooky that whilst you were regaling this tale ,a brooding black cloud appears over the very church he should have been buried in! Witchcraft ? Nah, just the great British weather. Strange all the same. Brilliant tale well told. Keep 'em coming
It was quite amazing! The good old British weather! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails just read on someone else’s post that you’ve had pc Problems. Hope everything was backed up.
@@colinbaker3415 Hmmmm... funny you should say that but our older HDD died too. Honestly! You couldn't write this!! Sarah :)
Excellent story Guys!
Its a wild old place down there....lovely house, but must be so windswept most of the time. Wouldn't be for me - if I had £5 million!
Has Andrew got his taste back after the illness? Didn't see him tucking into a Warren's, St Just Pasty .
Sarah, you sound more like your old self now, so getting there....where are the Spaniel's?
I expected that you would mention Jethro, but on checking my facts - despite his many references to St Just, he was actually born in St Buryan!
Yes, Jethro is indeed a St Buryan boy! We are both on the mend thank you! although Andrew still has a lingering cough and no sense of smell so no hankering for a pasty yet! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails That's a disaster!. Andrew/Pasty inextricably linked.
Not to be able to smell a pasty cooking is torture!
Love your walks but please can you get a wind shield for your microphone?
We have one - it’s just windy in Cornwall! Sarah :)
Hi Sarah and Andrew.....Do we have a new video for Saturday 20 April...or have I missed it ?. Stay well and stay safe
