    Who says you have to pay and cant park? It's high time we ignored these posters that demand payment for public countryside. This is OUR land. Just because some entity says they now own it, Its not for sale, it belongs to the people of the UK. Get them to show evidence of their authority and leave your phone at home. Enjoy life, live free.

      well said. money is just a religion of belief and no one can be forced into religious belief. indeed, idolatry (use of money and corporations) is is crime the moment it is forced upon us.

      Unfortunately, you are wrong. The legal debate is ownership of the foreshore ( land between high and low water points). Initially, under the Magna Carta ( yes, it’s specifically cited) the foreshore was deemed to be owned by the Crown ( along with fish weirs). Now some are owned by local councils and some by private landlords, so access is dictated by hurdles they place because trespass is a civil not criminal matter. And, of course, car parking on private land is the subject of an entirely different consideration.

      Speaking of 💩contamination of the sea, where do you imagine the waste from those toilets go? It is not feasible to perform the usual catch & treat manoeuvres in this geographic location. So the only solution is to stop tourism.

      Someone has to pay to make, maintain and man the carpark and road to it, these things don't appear naturally, the steps don't repair themselves the paths don't naturally grow gravel, if you park without a ticket you'll receive a fine in the post.

      Troll, you don’t own anything, we as “English” people don’t own a thing we didn’t pay for and even then it’s mostly rented. There is some seriously stupid people in this country. You expect to be treated like a king in this country because you had the luck to be born here and yet you expect the same when you enter someone else’s country.

    My father was based at RAF Predannack during WW2 - over 80 years ago - prior to being deployed to North Africa. As a boy back in the '60's he would tell us of his love of the Lizard and the many Coves that I too fell in love with too. I also had a great friend who was a commercial fisherman from Cadgwith, who I regularly visited during the '70's thru to the early '90's, however he was unfortunately lost at sea over 30 years ago and with that awful event, I unfortunately, I lost my appetite for the area for quite some time. Fortunately however, after being posted to the area several years ago, I've started to re-explore the Lizard which brings back some fantastic memories of both my Father and Good Mate Tony, who have now passed. Keep up the great work....

    Hi Sarah and Andrew, thank you so much for this wonderful footage of Kynance Cove. We visited this unique place often. I think if it protects nature it is okay that the National Trust restricted the access to the cliff top. But the rope is very low. I don't know if people let themselves be stopped from climbing over it. We love to visit Kynance cove in September. I miss Cornwall so much this May. Thank you both for sharing this wonderful videos. Have a nice weekend. Gabi:)

    Thank you for another lovely video. You take me back to places that I love to visit, teach me something new and make me smile.
    In Cornwall, we seem to have become victims of our own success in recent years. For various reasons, I feel that Cornwall has become more popular again, which is great for local businesses but there is a limit to what our infrastructure can stand, and I have noticed a number of 'protective measures' that have been put into place at various beauty spots. Of course, coastal erosion has a part to play in this too.
    Your assessment of Kynance, in my opinion, is spot on. I think that your footage cleverly provides a constructive and realistic portrayal of the reality that visitors may find when visiting Kynance, and indeed the rest of Cornwall, while still emphasising the beauty of the place. I take landscape photographs of Cornwall as a hobby and there are many 'versions' of Cornwall to be enjoyed. Personally, I prefer the stormy, moody winter, spring and autumn version to, what I call, the sanitised, blue sea and golden sand images found in tourist brochures, and always search for alternative viewpoints at different locations. Ironically my preferred viewing point at Kynance was the one that is now the official suggested one, so I shall just have to plan another visit and find another favourite. - Out of season and in a force 10, of course!
    Looking forward to seeing more of your wonderful content, as and when you have time. Best wishes, - Sue

    Congratulations Sarah and Andrew - another of your little gems! Kynance Cove must be one of the places I never visited when I was living in Cornwall, because I couldn't have forgotten such an idyllic location. The colours and the contrast in shades in this video are absolutely stunning. As well as your skills, I think it must have something to do with the evening light.
    I support absolutely your warnings in the video about the dangers the sea can pose. Never take it for granted 😮.
    The old disused white cottage on the way to the Cove, in conjuction with dangerous seas, reminded me of the mother of all erosion - the Hallsands tragedy. In case you might want to cover this story yourselves one day (I really hope you will), just the barest details here. Hallsands is/was a fishing village in south Devon that fell victim to a terrible storm in 1917, eventually leaving just the one white cottage like the one mentioned above. How this happened is a scandal - worthy of being retold, in a way only you can, just over a century later as a tribute to the 137 people who lost their homes.
    Looking forward to your next adventure - Robert

  • @TravellingTorunn

    Thank you for all these great videos. Lovely to spot the green serpentine in the stone steps up from the high tide path 😊My friend and I had a break at Kynance Cove during a walk along the coastal path. It was during the warm days in July 2022, and at low tide, which was thoroughly planned. The sea was turqoise and calm and held about 18-19 degrees. It looked just as picture perfect as on the best Instagram pics. The beach and the whole area felt quite a bit bigger than I had imagined. We waded a bit in the sea and loved it. And I regret to this day that I didn't take a dip. We decided against it because it would take more time than we were willing to spend (having a good distance to walk further on), and the backpacks would be heavier with the wet swimming costumes, towels and bathing shoes. But in retrospect I see that it was a silly decision. There were a lot of people but there were still places to be seated. We loved the place, and I would give it 5 based on our experiences. Thank you 🥰 Torunn.

    What a beautiful place it is. I haven't been for ages because of the crowds, but will definitely get down there when summer has closed out this year. Art request - you did a couple of lovely pen-and-ink drawings with watercolour wash during a Warleggan walk video from a couple of years ago that I saw recently. They had long since sold (not surprisingly) but I thought they were fantastic, so please do some more of those....!

    I don't think its a bad thing that the National Trust are trying to protect the cliffs and shore line. for safety and protecting the beauty of our coast . Just an example, We used to love visiting the Azure Window in Gozo Malta ,visitors ignored signs not to walk along the top of the Windows ledge and unfortunately it collapsed into the sea. Luckily no one was on it but due to people ignoring the notices, the famous landmark is no longer there. Protect our beautiful landmarks by respecting it ❤

    It does get crazy busy there during the summer. I tend to go in the evenings and catch the sun setting. Out of season, it's a joy to be able to explore without all the crowds.
    It's worth checking online before you go to these places now to try and find out if you need a parking app, so you can download it beforehand, as quite often the mobile signal in these places is next to nothing.

    As I recall and understand, alegedly..... The abandoned buildings are not owned by National Trust and have refused access for the owners to renovate and maintain the buildings. The owners refuse to sell them to National trust. This situation has persisted for at least 25 years and seems unlikely to change. Shame on you National Trust.

    Stunning panoramic scenery and soothing ocean sounds. I usually visit Cornwall late September to mid May, when it's mostly quieter. About 15 yrs ago I was lucky to buy the prettiest vintage sounenir of Serpentine rock, with one face polished like a sheer cliff, showing amazing colours, an the sweetest painted lead seagull perched wings-open on top (which probably dates it pre-'60s). I found it on a charity stall oustide Jubilee Pool Penzance that was then raising funds for restoration.

    To be fair it does get very busy there and so more erosion is happening - sadly this means that some parts are now out of bounds. It's such a lovely place but not when it's so crowded you cant easily pass on the paths. Our dog had her first swim there so happy memories - it was November and still very busy

    The one thing they don’t tell you is that the beach isn’t patrolled by lifeguards. The sea can have an undertow pulling you out to sea. For a strong swimmer it’s hard but others can drown. A few years ago my wife pulled a man from the sea. Air sea rescue came but despite cpr whilst waiting for the helicopter the man died. A beautiful beach, but take care when swimming please!

    National Trust maintain a lot of the coastal areas in Cornwall and around the UK. How do you imagine they shift the stones to repair the footpaths and a myriad of volunteers to assist repairs. If you travel to Scotland you’ll see the problems they have in restoring footpaths well away from any road. Parking fees help pay for this work and closures (Dorset especially) are down to their liability as a Landowner to protect visitors from injury. Help them repair the paths you complain about by volunteering or joining the National Trust and then you park in their car parks for free , instead of moaning about something you don't want to understand properly. Easy to complain when you don't think about the complexities and realities of being a Charity landowner !

    The sign doesn't say you must not cross the rope. It is only asking you to keep to the path. It is a nice location that I walked back in the 1990s. I am now 71 and would not be able to do it again , I hope you had a good day from EVE from Kent.

    However, about the app!! What if one has no mobile phone?
    Can parking only be established via app?
    Thank you for replying.

    Went to Kynance about 12 years ago. I had my photo taken on the edge of the cliff (the area you are no longer allowed to go on). Over tourism is causing lots of problems and untold damage. As you are locals, I feel you have a right to climb over the rope and take your pic. I'm not sure which route we took to get down (and up), but it was all rocky and it was literally clambering over rocks. Got down to the beach and had a little paddle. It was lovely and it was quite windy too. There was another path which led to the cafe, so you either took the rocky route or the cafe route but I don't think there was access to the beach from the cafe. Have they put a new path in then? Seeing abandoned housing near the sea that needs rebuilding is a very rare sight in Cornwall these days.
