Aghh!, St Ives! After my last visit a few years ago, I really didn’t think I’d come back. It unfortunately suffers from it’s popularity and as a results the streets are packed with people and the roads jammed with cars – it’s really not an enjoyable experience, 18th October 2008 at 5:42 pm
Day two and the weather is very summery. Parked at Kynance and walked along the coastal path to the Lizard. Along the way met up with some wild and friendly Shetland Ponies.

This is a route I haven taken in a while (around 35 years since I last did it). Last time I walked down the valley, it was not long after the floods and it was still looking pretty scared – now it back to it’s former glory.

I arrived at Boscastle on the day the flood defense scheme was officially opened – 4 years after the devastating floods. I’ve continued to visit the village since the flood and up to now it has still looked scared; The scaring has mostly healed and south of the lower Bridge – the location is a nice as ever. North however, I can’t help thinking that Boscastle has lost something. Tags: Boscastle, Cornwall, Holiday, Rocky Valley, tintagel | Category: Holiday | View Comments | 109 views

The “steps” refer to the rock formations and not to the treacherous steps that form the only access to the beach. There is no beach at high tide. It’s a great starting point for walks along the coastal footpath. PicturesFacilities

The beach is a bit of a hike from the car park through sand dunes and the first 50 metres of the beach are very steep – once you get there though, it’s well worth it. There is a large expanse of sand, even at high tide. The west, the cliff, is home to the Minack Theatre – worth visit but in my opinion, a bit of an eyesore. Next to the car park is the Telegraph Museum - the main part is cut into the rock face and there is a staircase that takes you to a hidden position high up on the cliff with some commanding views.

Access to the beach is via a broad pathway that has been cut into the rock. The beach is washed clean twice a day by the tide, and has many caves and rock pools to explore. There is easy access to the coastal path where you can enjoy spectacular walks to the neighbouring villages. Half way up the western cliff, is the Port William Inn from where you will get a commanding view over the beach. There is a small private car park close to the beach, but the main car park is a bit of a hike, up the hill PicturesFacilities
