[@cybersurfer2010]

Great tour along those nice places…

[@cjexplores]

Thanks for watching 🙏🏼

[@MrPaul79z]

i've only been to Newquay and st ives. Newquay is my favourite for the beaches, love the low tide walk from lusty to Town beach. I spent my childhood holidays in Newquay so its a very special magical place to me, i think about it daily. I want to see more of the cornwall coast just like you have. We plan to buy a mobile home as a holiday home. Your videos always touch me

[@cjexplores]

Awww Mr Paul 🙏🏼❤️ that’s such a sweet, heartfelt message. We hope you get to have your Cornish dream holiday in your mobile home 😍 we miss Newquay as well 😭

[@troysmith6013]

Me and my girlfriend are staying at Mullions Cove Coastal Retreat for my 27th in 2 weeks time. I figured a hot tub break is the way to go. Thanks for this video, the camera work is honestly astounding and the editing is spot on. Amazing video and I am now going to visit Kynance Cove as per your recommendation. Thanks :)

[@cjexplores]

Thanks mate 🙏🏼 I appreciate the feedback! A hot tub break sounds pretty damn good around this time of year, great choice! Hope you have a wonderful getaway ❤️

[@mkdons22]

Ive watched loads of your videos i must say your channel deserves to be bigger than it is very professional and enjoyable content which is well edited

[@cjexplores]

Awww 🥰 you are too kind! We do our best to keep it fresh. Finding it tricky with this weather at the moment though, hence why we are doing these kind of top 10 videos 😅 thank you so much for the support, it's a lovely reminder for us to continue making these videos for everyone!

[@marciandesilva]

Cornwall is a pretty place. I lived in UK for 4 years in the early 90s but never been to Cornwall. Btw, another great video... you guys make realky nice content. Oh and love your voice, so soothing to listen to, and makes the videos more enjoyable to watch.

[@cjexplores]

Oh @marciandesilva that's so kind of you 🥰 🥰 Thank you for the lovely comment 🙏🏼 you will have to make a special trip one time and visit Cornwall! Our recommendation would be to come in May/June. It seems to be the most clear, calm weather lately ☀️

[@dossantos3297]

In Cornwall right now and used this video to plan an outing the whole day tomorrow where we try to hit lands end first, then at Ives and st Micheals mount in Penzance. Thanks for the idea for the pasty in st ives definitely will be thinking of this vid when me and the family get to the bench 😂 many thanks

[@cjexplores]

Hope you guys had a wonderful holiday here in Cornwall and got to see all the bits you wanted! ❤️

[@tracygrant2923]

Great choices of places to visit in Cornwall. Quite a few there on our bucket list. Will need to organise a holiday to Cornwall soon! 🤔 ❤

[@cjexplores]

Thank you Tracy ❤️ I think you do! But May and June seems to be the best time to visit at the moment...maybe a trip for next year?

Another terrific "Wish You Were Here"programme, guys - well done!🤩💯🙏😀I like the sound of Kynance Cove,too, in Cornwall!As well as Pedn Vounder beach⛱️, of course! My brother loves visiting St. Ives for the same reasons as you mentioned.Have you ever gone to the Isles Of Scilly?A tropical🍹🐠paradise there.

[@cjexplores]

We nearly went to Isles of Scilly earlier this year but unfortunately missed it due to illness, it’s definitely on the cards though. We are hoping our summer makes a comeback soon 🙏🏼 thanks for your support Angus ❤️

You are very welcome, guys👍- no wuckers😀, which means no worries in Australian🇦🇺🌏. There's your Australian🦘🪃 slang word for the day,too. Well, I shall look forward to seeing hopefully a future video📼 of the Isles🏝️ Of Scilly.😀🤩

[@cjexplores]

Awesome! Thanks for letting us know 😊 I hope you have a wonderful time!

[@samebloke]

I have to get to Cornwall. Adapting from Australia to the UK has been hard so I need places like this in my life

[@cjexplores]

Sounds like you need some vitamin Sea 😉 what part of the UK are you based in?

[@samebloke]

@@cjexplores Indeed I do. I am in West Yorkshire. Not much to see around here but I have been doing some travel to nearby places. The Lake District and Sherwood forest have both been incredible to see

[@cjexplores]

@@samebloke best time of year to visit Cornwall is in spring! 😉 book in a little trip for next year 😁

[@samebloke]

That sounds like a good idea. Do you have any accomodation recommendations? @@cjexplores

[@cjexplores]

@@samebloke depending on your budget… the best we ever experienced was the Beach Lofts at Watergate Bay Hotel. But something more budget friendly might be Travelodge in Newquay? We had a beautiful stay in Bude at some apartments there. If you go through our channel you will find we did a bit of a staycation series in Cornwall featuring a few different places for you to see 😊

[@shellvlogs132]

Great video 🌟 I live in Cornwall, not far from Truro 😊

[@cjexplores]

Lovely! Hope your winter wasn't too cold! 🙏🏼

This is such a superb channel and I don't know why I did not come across it sooner. Very professional and extremely engaging. Thank you so much Charlotte and Cory for one of the best travel vlogs out there !!!

[@NotBROLL]

Riiight. It's very underrated. I expect it'll explode in the coming years.

[@cjexplores]

Thanks @perranjames that's such a lovely comment for us to read. We have some big plans to venture further afield this year and we're looking forward to sharing it all on our channel 😊

[@cjexplores]

@NotBROLL here's hoping 🙏😄

[@bobspeller2225]

Great video, and very useful. It bring back memories of lots of holidays to Cornwall and we will be planing another this year. thank you for sharing your travels. all the best Bob

[@cjexplores]

fantastic! Thanks for the support. We are hoping for an Indian summer this year as the wind and clouds have rolled in causing all sorts of chaos! 😉

[@paulsharpe4655]

CJ every Cornwall Tourist Information Office should have this playing on a loop on a big screen. By the way just curious to know to connection with New Zealand ? Is there where you live ?

[@cjexplores]

Aw thank you! Cory is from New Zealand 😊 we just spent 6 months travelling there but now we are in Australia 🌞

[@chuckmaddison2924]

Just been watching " Escape to the country " . Looks amazing. Would love to live there. Not sure about the wife. Best wishes from Western Australia.

[@cjexplores]

Thanks Chuck! It’s a wonderful corner of the UK, but then again so is WA to Aus!

[@chuckmaddison2924]

@cjexplores My garden is burnt, my house insurance went up $1000 because there was a fire 900 meters away. My skin shows some damage from the sun . We also have serious water shortage with some old trees dying. But overall, it's not bad. Mum was actually from Exeter. You all take care

[@gotsumana]

random idea but, is it possible that stereotypical pirate accents are based on the cornish accent? but changed into its own thing over the years? cornish do speak very similar to pirates and a couple hundred years ago cornwall was known for pirates.

[@cjexplores]

I love this theory!! 🤣 you could very well be onto something 😁

[@thunderpants6397]

Love Cornwall

[@cjexplores]

❤️❤️❤️ so do we!

[@rezasefidi9879]

We're going next week lookin forward to it Thanks for the video and also good tips on comments, if any one knows locations post code that would be very helpful, Many thanks 👍🏼♥️

[@cjexplores]

Fantastic! All the best with getting around, our top tip is using Google Maps for live traffic updates and road closures x

[@shaynewheeler9249]

😮😮😮😮😮

[@Heatherslover127]

I have been to most of these ! But that’s not surprise due to the fact that I live hereXD

[@cjexplores]

Good effort! Hope you liked it 😁

[@SilkeAcosta]

Im thinking of visiting cornwall soon, and your vlogs are really helpfull:) Do you think Pedn Vounder is worth visiting more than Kyance cove??

[@cjexplores]

Hi 👋🏼 I’m glad the videos are helping 😊 I think that Pedn Vounder is certainly less crowded! It’s just as interesting and takes a little adventuring to get to. I prefer that ever so slightly over Kynance Cove. But both are real amazing beaches!

[@SilkeAcosta]

@@cjexplores Thank you so much!

[@AndrewInglis-g9g]

Come to St Ives where locals play football outside your window all night (or throw stones at them) . Happy holidays !

[@cjexplores]

🙈😅 did you have this experience recently??

[@Jackieshere5065]

Thanks for the video . We are planning a trip to Cornwall. If possible can you recommend a family hotel of 5 people reasonable priced that could incorporate these wonderful places ?

[@cjexplores]

Hi there 👋🏼 thanks for watching 😊 we haven’t been in Cornwall for nearly a year so I would just recommend jumping on Booking.com to search for your exact dates and requirements. Anywhere around Newquay is a pretty good shout but you might find something cheaper if you look at Airbnbs in the countryside..?

[@Jackieshere5065]

Thanks ❤️

[@andrewrichards2291]

Avoid Hayle great place but the traffic is hell in the summer. You’ll be in traffic for 2 hours of your day…😊

[@إبراهيم-بدوي]

So beautiful ❤ If you have a choice between St Ives and Newquay! Which one will you choose?

[@cjexplores]

Newquay 😍

[@stevengosling5073]

St ives

[@DanielFox-xy5ze]

😅

[@Fidel-tk5rq]

Hi beautiful lady, I live in Edinburgh and planning to visit Cornwall this summer (July - September) and as you know our visit is at the mercy of the weather! Could you please be kind enough and advise on the best time to visit the best beaches of Cornwall? thanks in advance. Fidel

[@cjexplores]

Hi Fidel, thanks for your message! The weather is so “hit and miss” in Cornwall. But we have found the best times to visit often in September. Sometimes Spring time can be good too. The benefit of going in the shoulder seasons is there are less tourists around as well 😜

[@Fidel-tk5rq]

@@cjexplores We'll follow your advice and come in first week of September! Where/In what area should we base ourselves for a 5-7 days road trip in a car to visit the best beaches in Cornwall? Thanks

[@cjexplores]

@@Fidel-tk5rq wonderful! Well we would have to be a little biased and say Newquay is a good base. But maybe split your time between Newquay and St Ives to explore as much as you can during that week. You could fit in Newquay and all of its wonderful beaches, maybe visit Falmouth then St Ives, St Michael’s Mount, Lands End and the Lizard Peninsula. So much to do!

[@malgorzataswitala9809]

I would not agree with St Mawes in top 10 places to visit. St Maves didn't impress me at all when I was there. Neither with Mawgan Porth. But some other of yours are on my to visit list. The Kynance Cove, Pedn Vounder, Bedruthan steps and Lizard Peninsula. I also would like to come back to Port Isaac (I just drove through) and to St Ives (I have seen it partialy) and I liked it.

[@fionalyon9448]

Get the train from St Erth to St Ives it's much better than trying to park in St Ives

[@cjexplores]

Thanks Fiona! Great idea 👍🏼

[@muhammadtalhaahmed631]

Can anyone give me a tip best temperature to come from Birmingham

[@cjexplores]

May/June seems to be the best months of recent years ☺️

[@lisaroberts8037]

It also isn't as busy either

[@jasonpill179]

Brief mention but how can you not include Falmouth in a top 10 places to visit in Cornwall??

[@cjexplores]

We had it on the original list but added in St Mawes instead- it does deserve a visit though, it’s lovely!

[@TheBuckspygmy]

I live in Cornwall and it has to be desperate for me to go to Falmouth. Rammed with tourists, too gentrified and too difficult to park.

[@eri7-11]

wowww

[@cjexplores]

You been??

[@MP-ko8go]

You speak just fine and thank you

[@cjexplores]

Aww 🥰 appreciate the support 🙏🏼❤️

[@MrDaiseymay]

Very nice, can't show the whole county but--I'd have included POLPERRO, MOUSHOLE ,and St MICHAELS MOUNT, But you can't have everything.

[@cjexplores]

Thanks ☺️ yes we could spend a lifetime showing off all of the wonderful little pockets of Cornwall but then the emmets would take it all 🤣🙈🤪

[@fionalyon9448]

St Michaels Mount is fabulous

[@Heatherslover127]

I’m surprised to not see st Michael’s mount on this list !

[@cjexplores]

That’s a great shout! We need to go there and do a proper film about the place! It’s so magical 🤩

[@Ridge_reverse]

Have you guys been to lantic bay? it’s beautiful although it quite a long walk 😂

[@cjexplores]

No, but it’s on our list! We nearly went over there from Fowey but ran out of time 😉

[@Ridge_reverse]

@@cjexplores yes, my family used to own a holiday house in Polruan so we used to go there every time we went down.

[@jinniroe5002]

Name of waterfall?

[@cjexplores]

St Nectan’s Glen 😉

[@Alisha.fiza.]

How is February half term like?

[@cjexplores]

A bit windy and cold but not many tourists ☺️

[@Alisha.fiza.]

I can’t decide if should go south wales or Cornwall for half term February Havnt been to any so far

[@cjexplores]

@@Alisha.fiza. Cornwall is best in the spring time. Wales I think has pretty grey weather in general so maybe that could be a safer bet.

[@TravellingTorunn]

Good choices. I can understand it is hard to limit it to only 10 😄 I have been to all these destinations but not out on king Arthur's castle and at Nectan's glen - yet. But they are on our bucket list. When staying overnight in Tintagel in 2017, the new bridge wasn't built yet and we had had some hard walking from Crackington Haven to Tintagel in fog and rain and just wanted to relax 😊

[@cjexplores]

Thanks Torunn 😊 near on impossible to keep it to 10 😂 Maybe we should do a rapid fire version too... Top 300 spots in Cornwall in under 2 minutes 😳 The new bridge is simply stunning, it's actually two cantilevered bridges, separated by about 40mm to signify the crossing from the mainland to the island. It's also important to note that at one time, there was a narrow land bridge connecting Tintagel Castle to the mainland but it was washed away somewhere between the 16th-18th centuries. But the bridge is a symbol of that land bridge in a modern and safe format 😉

[@TravellingTorunn]

@@cjexplores thank you for history updates 😄 I didn't know that. When we were there, it was only the smaller bridge under this new one. And a load of stairs up and down after a long day's hike, so we dropped it 😄 Good luck making 400 spots in 2 minutes 😅 I always try to recognize the places in such videos before the place name is reveiled. But that would be a bit speedy 🔥

[@cjexplores]

Ahh I know that feeling after a long day of walking and having some recommended sight to see for a lot of extra work! Maybe we won’t do a speed round of places to visit 😉 I love to play that game too, we should make a picture game where you guess the town based just on the shape of the harbour 🤔

[@TravellingTorunn]

@@cjexplores that would be both interesting and challenging 👍🏻😁

Just watched a local man from Padstow on TV moaning there’s too many people that block up the beaches on their holidays. Sums up some of the people I’ve come across down there so don’t bother going anymore. Has got far too expensive anyway. Shame as the place is lovely.

[@cjexplores]

We are doing our best to try and change people’s perceptions. Often we will get negative comments on our content as well. It’s so ironic though, a bit like sitting in traffic and moaning about the traffic 🤣🤦‍♂️

all of them are nice but DO NOT visit st ives. the roads are about an inch thick and theres so many tourists crowding around the place that you can barely move. im not exaggerating
