The Hall Walk is great.
I’d also look at doing the coastal path the other way (south) towards Polkerris, then Par and beyond. There’s some decent sea views across St. Austell bay, some lovely secluded beaches and Polkerris has ‘Sam’s on the Beach’ and a decent pub.
You can do Fowey town in half a day if you don’t hang about. Then you could do the Hall Walk in the afternoon. Day 2 could be the coastal path as above. Then day 3 you have options:
- The Eden Project is great if you’ve never been. A lot of it is outside so don’t go if it’s raining.
- You could get the ferry to Mevagissey if you like being on the water (although Meva is just like a small Fowey).
- There’s the Lost Gardens of Heligan (also good).
- Lostwithiel, Looe and Polperro could be done in a day by car.
Loads of choices!
Is this a popular walk? Think the hotel may have a map for me?
I assume Fowey town itself is just, well, a town!? Nothing in particular to see, just a place to wonder around and grab groceries?
We now have a late afternoon, two full days and a morning and afternoon timing wise. Will be pretty tired after the 4.5-5 hour drive up and back so on day 1 and 4 we will have to stick to the local stuff near the hotel that does not require driving and on day 2 and 3 drive out and do the rest.
Eden Project - Have to book in advance now as per website so cant avoid rain. I thought it was mostly inside hence the big domes?! Do they have air con? Surly on a hot day it will be like a greenhouse?!!!
Ferry would be fun - Just for the sake of it
Lost Gardens of Heligan looks like the same kind of thing as Eden project? Would you do both?
which gives you more time away.
