Thinking about adding a ninja air fryer to the kitchen.
Would anyone use it ?

We are continuing with our posts of the beautiful cottage and today we are showing you the bedrooms 🛏️😴

The stone boat is a 2 bedroom Cottage. the Large bedroom boasts a KINGSIZE bed and the 2nd Bedroom has a DOUBLE bed. These beds are so comfy that we often get asked where we bought them as guests want to buy the mattress for their own beds. What better way to relax? 🧘🏻‍♀️ 😃

Which bedroom would you pick? 🤔

BEWARE OFFSHORE WINDS NEXT FEW DAYS
Offshore winds that blow off the beaches and which can push paddleboarders, kayakers and swimmers out to sea, are likely until the weather changes in the middle of next week.
Beaches likely to be affected include:
East Looe
Millendreath
Seaton
Downderry
Portwrinkle
Kingsand
Cawsand
Offshore winds can make it especially difficult for those in the sea, (inluding paddleboarders, kayakers and swimmers) to get back to shore. When combined with an outgoing tide, offshore winds make it doubly difficult to get back to shore.
And don't forget that we have very high Spring tides over the next few days which makes the tides run much faster and will take you out further!
ADVICE -
Try to avoid offshore winds, even if it seems nice and calm close inshore,
Check the state of the tides,
Wear a buoyancy aid
Always carry a means of calling for help

Lovely way to spend an afternoon. It's really close to Polperro

Looking to take the kids to meet the local wildlife?

From the cheeky monkeys at Wild Futures to trekking with beautiful alpacas on the edge of Bodmin Moor with Alpaca Trekking with Moor View Alpacas

….if you are longing to see the lemurs & a host of other wild animals, pop over to Porfell Wildlife Park and Sanctuary or for a day out with the donkeys (the happiest in Cornwall!) they are waiting for a big hug at Tamar Valley Donkey Sanctuary

So much to do right on our doorstep when staying in & around Looe & Polperro…

Good to know

LIFEGUARD COVER - AUGUST 2023
Now that the summer season is well under way, even if the weather hasn't caught up, RNLI Lifeguards are also fully operational on the following beaches throughout August 10.00 - 18.00 DAILY
Tregonhawke | Sharrow | Tregantle | Seaton
and at Freathy at weekends + bank holidays only
The Lifeguards are there to help you and watch over beach and water users.
When on a lifeguarded beach, find the red and yellow flags and always swim or bodyboard between them – this area is patrolled by lifeguards.
Never swim alone.
If you get into trouble, stick your hand in the air and shout for help.
If you see someone in difficulty, don't attempt a rescue. Tell a lifeguard, or, if you can't see a lifeguard, call 999 or 112 and ask for the coastguard.

Respect the Water | BE ALERT
