Cornish Cowgirl's Cornish Adventure

Usually my holidays consist of trying to cram as much sight-seeing in as possible but this trip was different. Yes we did sight-seeing things but we also had two days lazing on the beach and I was very pleased to have the opportunity to read several books from my 'to read' pile.

Our luxury accommodation

The waves at St Ives attracted lots of surfers


The Tate gallery at St Ives - what a stunning building!


A delicious lunch at the Tate in St Ives. The Cornish Blue cheese was so dreamy that I had to bring some home with me
