St Mawes & Portscatho

It's the last day of our jolibobs so we took advice from friends and headed to St Mawes & Portscatho  

We started at the visitor centre and picked up a map, then headed down to the harbour for breakfast.  Himself nipped to the butchers who gave us some fresh bones for Goose for the price of a small donation to the air ambulance.

Whilst sat out eating we saw today's freshly made Cornish pasties being delivered to the bakery, we snaffled two to take home for a late lunch and they had all three of us drooling.

We sauntered up to the castle (a Henry VIII fort), had a chat with the guide there and let Goose have a wander on the small beach.

Then it was back into town and a stop at Olga Polizzi's Hotel Tresanton for ice cream and coffee on the terrace.  The hotel, staff and ice cream were amazing.  It was a balmy 15 degrees so my nose is a little ruby and I have a smattering of freckles.

Afterwards we drove along to Portscatho, then down to the beach to let Goose run around.

Home by 4 tired but happy and then the perfect sunset to end a fabulous week.
