Live in a village halfway between St Austell and Newquay so about 15 mins from South Coast and 15 Mins from North Coast must admit we are very lucky to be in such a beautiful place and can have tea on the beach if we choose although as it is always raining we don't do it that often Cool

Been to St Austell, and Newquay (horrible place imho) a few times, but only ever driven through the Indian Queens area.

Got to be honest, I like Cornwall, go there twice a year. Newquay, though, represents all that is bad and tacky with UK seaside towns.


You're quite right, Newquay is not very nice but is not frequented by locals. We go to the special beaches that are not visible to incomers. These are beaches where all the beer is free and all the single girls sunbathe in the nude. Obviously we don't publicise these places or everyone would want to go there. For everyone else there is NEWQUAY Grin


Now now! we are members of OOF I won't tell anyone Wink just interested in the free beer obviously Grin Grin

Hi and welcome to the Forum Thumbs Up!

We have been to Pentewan Sands for a few years running lovely place  Wink


Thumbs Up!Pentewan Sands, beautiful but they won't let locals on the beach Cry Still, close to work and my daughter used to be able to see the beach there from her classroom. If that had been me I wouldn't have got any work done.

St Agnes is a really beautiful part of the county. We love the north coast and its dramatic scenery. Next time you visit, the A30 should be dualled across Goss Moor so the jams won't be so bad under the Iron Bridge, fingers crossed.

Part of it opened about a month ago, and I was talking to someone today who said that it should be fully open in a couple of weeks. Just in time for the summer. Cool

Hi everybody

What a friendly place this looks to be.

Like most people, I never register for forums or chat rooms or anything else on the web but this site community looks really welcoming and all of the posts I have read seem to be from really caring people who want to help each other out. I suppose it's because everyone is so pleased that they drive on of the best kept secrets on the road.

I'm sure I'll be back soon as I've recently decided to do more work on the car myself.


Welcome golfbuddy, and enjoy the site by the way keep quiet about  luxobarges or everyone will want one and the prices will go up Wink

Don't worry Tony. I won't tell anyone if you don't. The only problem is that I don't know what I will do when there aren't any decent Omegas left to buy. I suppose I had better look after this one.
