'Mithian' is that because it is a mythical place? Looks very nice

Not sure if my GPS is telling porkys but it's north Perranporth beach always quiet as people tend to stay near town or the Haven camp beach , there's a road next to haven entrance you can drive down and park alongside sand dunes, big dog walking place, then walk to the quiet north end

Cornwall is a lovely place... to build 2nd homes in.

But it won't be for much longer. All the lovely little towns are rapidly becoming quite built up, and we barely have the infrastructure to cope with what we've got.

Give it a few years and @moon man will be surrounded by high-rise tower blocks

Ha I wish I was totally certain this won't happen but things are going crazy for sure, up country wfh types snapping up the rental market property's by over offering 100s per month and buyers market going crazy

I feel like I live in hobbiton, middle earth, (this Ailways comes into my mind on the moors) but the eye of sauran is awakening

Its too busy for a holiday, there are much quieter and dare I say it... nicer places in the UK for a holiday.

You have to know where to go, the tourists are predominantly lazy and huddle in little hot spots like Newquay, but please spread the word about nicer places because most of the UK have woken to realise what a hole they live in and are heading here en mass
Random shot near me,

The UK is turning into Alcatraz, all we need now is the army deployed and a gigantic perimeter wall around the whole UK border that shoots to kill anyone that tries to leave or enter. Next we will need passports to enter each and every town.

It's becoming a cowing joke.

Sounds great to me

I still have a little chortle thinking back to my Bakery bossman talking to me and boasting that he has a 2nd home in Greece and expecting me to be in awe and all I replied back with was " oh is that for your 2nd family you've got hidden away " to a guy who most wouldn't say boo to and I wasn't playing his game, his jaw actually dropped and my work mates didn't know where to look and were spitting holding in the laughter. Suppose you had to be there

Quite agree

Also I shouldnt have said all of the UK has realised it lives in a hole

that was my own situation in Yorkshire, the UK as a whole (not a hole) has awesome places but dire weather, still desperate to visit Filey on my next trip up there

I wonder if some people with a lot of disposable income might view the £5k as a hit worth taking for a lovely holiday with hardly anyone around, on the basis they normally spend 5 figures on a holiday anyway and might be able to offset some of the cost by getting a bargain 5* hotel etc. I guess it goes on your record or something though.

You mean like Spain, as that is pretty much that they did. Aus and NZ to a lesser extent.
