    Live in Cornwall the trouble is it looks nice but it’s getting over built it’s coming to be one big second home place wages are low food is dear water bills cost more down here .as for car parking lots of holiday makers park down the back roads then you come home from work and can’t park anywhere because they all downtown ,spent 45 minutes looking for somewhere to park after work it’s a nightmare glad when it’s winter

    Really enjoyed your video Dan & Mazzy and thanks for showing us the sights & sounds of Polperro. If only there was such a thing as smell-o-vision, as I can only imagine how unique it must be there.
    You looked so lovely in your black dress with the pretty puffy sleeves Mazzy. Loved Dan's tshirts, hat, and the snazzy shirts too.
    Your grocery haul looked great and good idea of yours Mazzy to divvy it up into portion sizes.
    I've really enjoyed reading everyone's comments here too - sharing memories and experiences of Polperro/Cornwall.

    Polpearo sorry I think I have spelt it wrong. I love it there. My granddad use to go there with his friends from the royal society of artists years ago when I was a young girl. Just after my Nan passed away. He loved drawing and painting.. he met his second wife when she saw a picture of his on display at the sucieties place in new street Birmingham were they lived. Her last husband was a window dresser at. A Debenhams store in the town. Because she sent me to ask if they had a job going when I left school. But. Ended up in Dudley working for Littlewoods as a window dresser in stead. Because my mom and dad lived in West Bromwich . But after l got married back in 1968. I moved around with my husband. And for a short time lived in Ipswich his home town. We moved every 6 to 8 months. But when my son was born I had to move back to West Bromwich. My dad passed away age just 45. Then when my mum remarried again in 1976. My step dad sent me out to work. He said I could earn more than mum so she looked after my son .
    Life has you both know can be tough at times. Bless you both lots of love and hugs to you both. Angela carol ward xxxx

  • @Pajaholic
    @Pajaholic 2 роки тому +1

    I suspect that the cost of parking in Polperro is a form of rationing since there's only one car park for the whole town.
    For info, the Eden Project tickets are annual passes -- so that fee covers you for unlimited visits throughout the year starting on the date of purchase. Not only that, but the Eden Project parking attendants give motorhomes preferential parking -- they send you to the back of the bus stand and so closer to the entrance than almost all of the car parks. There are also some good pub stops in the area (Britannia Inn and Ship Inn, Par; Four Lords, St Blazey Gate).
    It's a personal thing, but our favourite pasties come from Cornish Pod on the Rame Peninsula (GPS: 50.3528, -4.2336), which isn't too far from Whitsand Bay Holiday Park and Maker Heights Campsite. They also do pasties by post at £60 for a box of 12 or £36 for a box of 6.

    Been to Polperro a good few times. About 5 years ago was the last time. Definitely the most picturesque. There's a lovely walk round the other side of the harbour. I don't remember the parking price being so crazy, 3 hours isn't enough to relax and have a meal. No wonder the car park looked so empty

    • @TravelTrollsTV

      Exactly. £12 is extortionate but it would be acceptable if it was for the full day so you could enjoy the place and have a meal down there.

I have had a couple of fabulous visits to Eden and Lost Gardens a number of times but it sounds like a Cornwall rip off now with the costs of parking and entrances - regrettably I will have no plans to return (for the record, in my camping days (tent with family) I went to a Trencreek Farm holiday site by St Austell & Mevagissey more than once - lovely place, here's a bit towards the next car park.

    Hiya Dan and Mazzy . A lovely walk through Polperro, thankyou you took me back. I mentioned yesterday the parking price, it’s diabolical. We had fish and chips at the chippy by the harbour. We got chatting to the owner as we were miffed about the price to park. She told us that some person bought the land where the parking is and he can charge what he likes 🤬🤬🤬 she said if we go again, the road on the right as you leave , to drive up there and there are some pull ins where people park on the grass. She said a delivery van to her chippy was fined as he parked outside on double yellow lines. The businsss there were not happy. Despite that it’s a beautiful place, thanks for taking me round. Looking forward to watching your holiday at Hendra, you deserve a fab holiday. Safe travels 👍👍😃😃

    Polperro is a lovely little place.
    I've just done a video from the Eden Project Dan if you want something to watch. Its a truly awesome place!
    It is expensive at £37 but it must cost millions to keep it the place maintained.
    We only paid £16 for residents pass as we are locals.
    I look forward to your next vid, Paul 👍
