📍St Mawes, Cornwall. 👉🏻 Now that the bus

📍St Mawes, Cornwall. 👉🏻 Now that the busy summer has finished, there’s no better time to wander and explore some of Cornwall seaside towns and villages. ☕️ St Mawes is a lovely little place for a wander. I know it well and particularly like sitting with a coffee, doing a bit of people and sea watching, before browsing the art galleries. 🏖 And strolling on the beach, of course. That’s always a must in my book. Where’s your favourite place for a Sunday stroll? #stmawes #roselandpeninsula #theroseland #harbourtown #cornwallbeach #cornishcove #lovecornwall #amazingcornwall #cornwallguide #thegreatcornishoutdoors #cornishlife #sundaystroll #thisprettyengland #seasideliving #coastallife #cornwallblogger #bloggerunder5k #slowsimpleseasonal #exquisitepics20 #yourcoasts #yourbritain #capturingbritain_coast #discovercornwall #cornwalltourism #raw_seasons #hellocornwalluk

How good is this view? Just one of many to grab

How good is this view? Just one of many to grab my attention during Fowey Hall Walk. 4 glorious trail miles hugging Fowey estuary including 2 little ferry rides ⛴, paths through hidden woodland 🌳 and discovering new places and hidden gems. Oh, and an ice cream to finish from @game_of_cones_fowey 🍦 😋 👉🏻 You can read more via the link, or at thegreatcornishoutdoors.com

Very much hoping this glorious September sun continues 🌤😎. I think I may have a sea dip and run on my days off, it’s hard to resist when it looks like this 😍.

Ready for another knockout? WHEN I LOOK THE OTHER

Ready for another knockout? WHEN I LOOK THE OTHER WAY
A4 (30 x 21 cm) - acrylic on board. As for the name, I wanted something to reflect my visit to this part of Cornwall, along the coast path near Porthcurno. Standing on Treen cliffs, I watched in wonder at Pedn Vounder Beach. But when I looked the other way, this view greeted me. I was equally as captivated and mesmerised as I was with the beach. A peaceful, intimate landscape, a moment in time that I couldn’t wait to paint 😍.

Isn’t it funny how, sometimes, running routes ar

Isn’t it funny how, sometimes, running routes aren’t quite how we remember them? At the weekend I ran from Gylly beach to Maenporth. There were definitely more inclines than expected! Wonderful coastal views most of the way round and I squeezed in a little stroll on the beach. Only 4 miles but my legs were tired. Thank goodness I had my new @fitlegseverydaylife compression socks to help with muscle fatigue 🦵🏻🦵🏻🙏🏻. One day the hills won’t feel so difficult, but I’ll still we wearing the socks 🧦 🙂. *ad/pr #compressionsocks #fitlegseverydaylife #womenwhorun #c25k #stravarunning #beachrun #coastalrun #cornwallrunning #thegreatcornishoutdoors #seekthetrails #runtoexplore #runningsocks #nevermissamonday #southwestcoastalpath #runnershigh #trailandultra #flatisboring #liveloverun #sheruns #smilesandmiles #runningmakesmehappy #trailrunninglove #womensrunningcommunity #irunthisbody #runaddict #runrunrun #trailchix #trailtime #theadventurenetwork #socksofinstagram

Yesterday’s Newquay sea swim with @thewellbeingw

Yesterday’s Newquay sea swim with @thewellbeingwisdomclub was the kick up the butt I needed. I’ve only managed one or two small swims all summer which isn’t like me. The jellyfish have put me off more than ever & I’m sure getting out of the routine of swimming hasn’t helped. So with the jellies gone, I’m looking ahead, and giving myself a stern talking to. I love sea swimming, even if it’s only for a few minutes. The benefits definitely outweigh the risks posed by jellyfish! 📍 Towan Beach, Newquay #risefierce #womenwhoswim #newquay #newquaycornwall #towanbeach #seaswim #getinthesea #bluemind #aquatherapy #coldwaterswimming #saltwatersoul #cornishlife #outdoorswimmingsociety #britain_outdoors #kernowlife #seastheday #amazingcornwall #cornwallbeach #coastallife #yourcoasts #greatbritishcoasts #wonderfulwildwomen #hellocornwall #wearestillwild #thalassophile #exploreyourbackyard #visitcornwall #thegreatcornishoutdoors #theseaiscalling #weswimwild

Phwoar- check out these pizzas 🍕🍕 served up

Phwoar- check out these pizzas 🍕🍕 served up to us a few nights ago at @melinseymill An evening visit during the summer has become a bit of a tradition for us, and it’s easy to see why. Melinsey Mill is nestled in a valley on the Roseland, near Veryan. It holds rustic appeal with its wooden pods, magical pond walk, and old school outside pizza oven. Needless to say, we left feeling content and satiated, and warm from the wine 🍷 🤪😂.
