Well I had an enjoyable but eventful walk today. As suggested, I took a different route which took me around the back of the village and upto Meudon Farm. Then past the Meudon Hotel which has the most fantastic gardens of any hotel I know of in the UK. It was previously a manor house owned by the Fox family I mentioned the other day. The garden they created here was a precursor to the great gardens they built subsequently at Glendurgan and Trebah, and goes all the way down to a private beach at the bottom of the valley. Great place to go for cream tea in the summer which they serve in the gardens. Then down past Nansidwell Manor, another country house that was previously a hotel and is now owned by a Russian oligarch. Then along the coastal path for about a mile or so where things came apart a bit. I seem to have somehow strayed inland from the coastal path and found myself in a field being approached by about a 100 head of dairy cattle. Quite scary tbh, but I escaped by climbing over a gate into another field, and following my nose until I climbed another gate and found myself back on the coastal path. Followed this around to the church I photographed a couple of months ago, and then back into the village. A round trip of about 5 miles and quite a bit of it hilly so a really good workout again. Just about to prepare my first G&T before cooking my mussels.
