Don't leave Cornwall without visiting Polperro

One of the most beautiful villages in England

[@grahamshaw9316]

This country holds hundreds of beautiful places like this yet many don't even kno they exist they'd rather "travel the world" but don't kno what's on our doorstep ,we as a family love Cornwall and now in my later years spend lovely weeks with our dogs there a few hours in the van and we're there 😎

[@linpollitt8950]

Cornwall is my favourite place in England. Not only for its beauty but also for it's history and it's Celtic mythology. To me it hums with magic and mystery. My heart is in Helston...Loe Pool is one of the places where King Arthur is said to have met The Lady of the Lake and claimed Excalibur. The Blue Anchor where they brew their own beer, Spingo. They have a 16th century skittle alley where you can play and take on the locals, who are very welcoming. I ❤ Cornwall.

[@Dusty2feathers]

Polperro was my late mum's favourite place in Cornwall and I can understand why. Stunning traditional Cornish harbour town.

[@funkydozer]

It’s a sad fact that so many of those pretty little cottages are holiday homes owned by wealthy Londoners, making it almost impossible for locals to buy homes there.

[@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse]

Is it sad? Have you been to many other Cornish towns and villages with no 2nd homes nor tourism? They’re usually shit’oles. This place would be a shit’ole too without the Londoners money there. True story! 💯

True. On the other hand, they do keep them in tiptop condition. Locals be scrappy 😂

And all knowingly sold by the Kernows to Londoners! Rather than sell at a price a local could afford which they were perfectly able to do so with means and ways available to do so had the vendors wanted to look after the locals rather than take the money and run..................so you cant lay all the blame with the buyers even though everyone tries to. Be careful what you wish for though as no holiday homes/lets and no local business/income bar the fishing which barely pays for the beer and a pasty these days................

I really think using words like “dumb” and “unbelievable”, just show how “dumb” and “unbelievable” you are! To not have the ability to recognise that my polite and lighthearted words about the traditions of a Cornish pasty were a well thought out comment to support the channel. All whilst posting a fun piece of information! You also seem to lack the ability to observe surrounding evidence, so I’ll highlight the fact that the channel owner has responded to my comment and clearly received it in the way it was intended. Meaning you must be ridiculously unbelievably dumb! Oh and by the way, although yes mining still continued into the 1900’s, in context of the miners eating pasty’s it would of made more sense for you to of put either the 1600’s or 1700’s as this is when it was much more commonplace. Of course I’d never call you dumb for this though.

Ignore the hype around the Cotswolds, Stonehenge, Cornwall, York, Stratford upon Avon etc. Yes these places are attractive and interesting and if you don't mind rubbing shoulders with half the world's population fine. The fact is though that anywhere in the UK will give you stunning scenery, pretty towns and villages, castles and churches and stately homes. Buy a good guide and do some research. Then just choose a location and explore. Of course it will take a lifetime to explore it all. Best plan is not to try to see places far apart. It takes a lot longer to get around than you think. Go for a locality such as Shropshire, Norfolk, Scottish Borders or Pembrokeshire for example and you will never forget it.

The county cannot recover from the onslaught that started in earnest some ?20? years ago. Cornwall is certainly not the only county to suffer this fate.

Its beautiful isnt it.

[@arturotraveller3761]

My word it is !

[@stephenbaker8922]

Not a patch on North Yorkshire seaside towns like Filey, Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay, Runswick etc.

[@arturotraveller3761]

Spent 3 nights in Whitby. What a beautiful town. Not really comparing "apples with apples" though. One is a picturesque, the other historic. Whitby one of the highlights of my trip. Will soon be uploading the video - cheers

[@jontalbot1]

There is another way of seeing this. It’s a tourist trap and nearly all those houses are second homes and holiday lets. Not a place l would choose to go.

[@bill-wd7zs]

Beautiful but 6 quid for a pasty, bloody pirates the lot of them :)

[@arturotraveller3761]

Yeah ! I kinda felt an Oggy for 12 Aussie Dollars ( double the hit) was a bit much but here’s thing. I didn’t pay for the pasty I paid to sit on that bridge and eat it ! That was a bargain at any price - Cheers !

[@desmondrobinson169]

Past eee

[@raychambers3646]

Very expensive carpark .

[@arturotraveller3761]

Depends on what you call expensive. As I recall it was 7-8 pounds. Comapred to similar parking in Europe and what we pay in Sydney around the trousit district it was cheap and that considering it was $15 Aussie. Cheers ! BTW - the cost of the parking was worth it

[@tenniskinsella7768]

Why dhoulnt it be inbengland. What's wrongvwith holiday cottages so people can have a holiday who might come from a not so good part of englandv

[@davetrugeon]

Well 20,000 Cornishman can’t be wrong unlike a lone Englishman Your better off east of the Tamar

[@tenniskinsella7768]

But crowds mean a place is noce

[@tenners3258]

You can't visit Polperro without leaving England.What planet are these people from?

[@kathrynplatten-higgins3464]

The whole village is owned by one family , very strict on how it should appear

[@arturotraveller3761]

It’s a treasure worth preserving forever

[@TheSilvercue]

You are mixing it up with a Clovely in North Devon. Polperro is not owned by one family. Houses are freely bought and sold on the open market and the roads are not private,

[@kathrynplatten-higgins3464]

Sorry , yes was clovelly I got mixed up with lol

[@semperf1dude]

Pasty? pronounced Pass-ty

[@TheFowey]

NEW FLOOD GATES 😂

[@chrisval78]

Yeh, get right. Cornish Passsssty. Pas, not pay !

[@arturotraveller3761]

GOT IT ! I actually corrected myself sitting on the bridge eating it ! Yummo

[@brianjohnson9173]

Cornish "pastey"!!?? What on earth is that? You should hav tried a Cornish pasty. Proper job!!

[@arturotraveller3761]

That's what I had in the end

[@kennethmaney914]

Pass tee not pace tee,

[@roberthopkins7142]

"Don't leave England without visiting this town" FYI you would have to leave England to visit Polperro, it's in Kernow not England.

[@arturotraveller3761]

I love it ! I thought Kernow was a County in England. It appears however that the people of Kernow may see themselves as a separate nation . I recall being in Perranporth and the seeing the black and white Cornsih Flag flying highly on a rocky outcrop of the beach. If Wales, Scotland Northern Ireland can have a naitonal identity then why not Kernow !

[@paulficken5561]

FYI, it’s not though is it?

[@Acridblue999]

Every single county in England has its own flag, Cornwall is not unique in that.@@arturotraveller3761

[@lyndoncmp5751]

Bollocks. It's in England.

[@paulsmith843]

How long will it be before they put an illegal immigrant site there?!

[@davidculmer1520]

Get rid of the selfie stick and stay out of vision!

[@arturotraveller3761]

Hahaaa Cheers mate ! 🧂

[@Al-ny8dk]

Jeez you suggest that its all lovely when it is clearly tourist hell. The people of that place must never leave their houses given the crowds in such a tiny place. Nightmare.

[@arturotraveller3761]

i'm sure that if made this video from the point of view of the locals, you'd be right, This video however, is not a critique about local living conditions. It's a vlog from a tourists perspective. You might in the wrong forum.

[@davetrudgeon559]

Best leave it at this point

[@jca111]

Paahsty not paysty

[@arturotraveller3761]

When in Rome….

[@steven2809]

Paahsty..? 😂

[@booker0110]

Nonono. Not a paste - ee. For F’s sake. It’s a pastie.

[@MarkGuitar]

Paah-stee not Pay-stee

[@mattred1200]

Eat an Oggy anyway you like!!!

[@arturotraveller3761]

Thank you ! I’ve copped a bit of flack for the pronounciation and for the eating method ! At least I have fellow Oggy eater on side
