GREAT budget day out in Cornwall

[@steve94971]

My wife and I visited St. Ives Church last year. We also enjoy reading the grave stone we found it quite fascinating how old the grave stones were. Great video fascinating Church and beautiful garden thanks for sharing.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

From memory the headstones have been used to create a path. Interesting story: the grace yard has up to three layers of burials, which is why it is higher in places than the church. Not unlike other graveyards in Cornwall. Sarah :)

[@steve94971]

@Cornish Walking Trails very interesting thanks 😊

[@Pooky-Cat]

We always seem to end up in the graveyards of places we visit, lol. And we love calling in the churches, and if its an open day with tea and cakes even better 👍. One rule we impose on ourselves is to make donations to these churches and if there is somewhere to light a votive candle I take advantage and give thanks, to all that is good in the world, for these beautiful buildings.

[@sallydingle321]

That was so good to see and not somewhere I have been yet, despite living in Cornwall for 43 years🤔.. It's now on my list for visiting this spring. We always head for Portscatho on the Roseland but must divert and go to St Just now 👌🙏. It looks so peaceful and so full of amazing plants. I am partial to reading gravestone myself... so I guess that makes me odd too 😜😂. Thanks so much for sharing this and would love more budget saving ideas 👍😁💖😘

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Reading the comments, it looks like it’s completely normal to read the headstones - phew!!!! 😂😂😂 Sarah :)

[@colinbaker3415]

As you have said in previous videos , This corner of Cornwall is easily overlooked for its beauty . This place is just magical ! And those cakes!!!

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Cakes were excellent! Sarah :)

[@loripadilla669]

Sarah and Andrew thank you.This was brilliant. I would say yes you are weird but in the best possible way--I agree graveyards are fascinating. Funny the headstone you read was for a Hocking as that is a family name. Much more common in Cornwall than in Arizona, USA. Wish we were visiting in the spring but it will October for us this year. Lovely to see your daughter as well. I love these budget ideas, please do more. Happy Easter!

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Oooo! How exciting! We have a few more budget ideas and some of them are great all year around, even October! Sarah :)

[@loripadilla669]

@@CornishWalkingTrails Thank you Sarah!

[@carotrike]

I am the other side of 60, and my husband retired at the beginning of this year. We sold the car too, to simplify our life. Now we just pay for transport when we need it. But having all this time means no more rushing around! So, like you we value the small things,; looking at nature, visiting grandchildren, house sitting for our daughter and looking after her collie dog. Today I spent half an hour playing with her dog in his paddling pool (it's super hot here in the UK!), just splashing him with water and watching him try to catch it, while keeping cool. This evening we will go for a cool walk and watch the river, who knows what wildlife we'll see!

[@judybee]

What a great idea Sarah & Andrew for things to do on a budget around Cornwall. St. Just in Roseland is simply lovely. I have only been there once but remember it well. And lovely to see your daughter pop up for Easter Holidays in the vid....I remember you taking the kids on walks back in the day on your travels. Always great to see the dogs too enjoying their days out with you. Lovely vid and Happy Easter x J x

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

St Just church yard has all the delights of an expensive NT garden. I’m glad you like the idea of Cornwall on a budget. We have a few video ideas that we can do, and loads of experience entertaining 2 kids for six weeks summer holidays in Cornwall - always a challenge! Sarah :)

[@brigidaodonnell7053]

I love to read the gravestones also and enjoy looking at what the person buried beneath may have been doing in the area if it tells of such information, and I love to try to see which people are related, and who their children were. It is really interesting history and can tell a lot about the place you are visiting

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Yes! So fascinating when you stumble over a lot if gravestones with the same surname! We found a wonderful story last time we went to Padstow, about a master mariner and his family! Sarah :)

[@gregb49]

@@CornishWalkingTrails You might have seen one of my wife's ancestors, "Unfortunately drowned", it says on his St Just gravestones. It does beg the question .... May I recommend the St Mylor churchyard (Mylor Harbour). There are some fascinating inscriptions, plus a lovely walk to Flushing.

[@lynnoorman2144]

I haven't been there since I was a child! You have inspired me to go back! Thank you.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Have fun! We hope you enjoy your visit, Sarah :)

[@Erika-Uwe]

Hello dear Sarah&Andrew , what a brilliant idea making a on a budget video , we just got back from cornwall and devon,spend 2 weeks in your beautiful country ,we went to st nectans glen again ,walking in your steps and we love this place so much!we put a heart on one of the branches remembering our late beloved puppy ,she loved having a bath down at the waterfall pool.thank you for making so wonderful videos and for sharing!!!!...we spent a fortune on parking tickets 😂😂😂 xx best wishes erika&uwe

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

You are very welcome! And parking is so expensive and a nightmare. The Council is proposing to increase some areas drastically and we are a little concerned because we always have to pay the longest rate so that we can film our videos. Looks like that could be £12 in some towns, ouch!! Sarah

[@Erika-Uwe]

@@CornishWalkingTrails omg ,that is an increase!!!😳😳😳😳😳way far to much...I forgot to say that the graveyard is worth a visit !!!fantastic😀

[@toddrunyon3635]

I started watching southwest England tourism videos, beautiful gardens. One thing that surprised me was the presence of palm trees that far north. Then I remember that the Gulf Stream comes from the Caribbean up the east coast of North America and keeps Western Europe mild in the winter. Thank you for the tour.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

We featured some palm trees in a video last year, can’t remember which one, but we had a comment from New Zealand saying they are called cabbage trees, and used for navigation! Extraordinary! Sarah :)

[@esthermorrissey1454]

I have just read through the wonderful comments and agree with them all. A stunning location and our all time favourite place to visit any time of the year but more so in the Spring. Brilliant choice of subject Andrew and Sarah - PS No!! you are not weird at all - We love reading gravestones as well ………

[@phil7301]

I took my Mom to that cafe last June, we had the ploughman's lunch. Now, I'm 6ft5 and can eat for Britain , but the amount of cheese we both had was collosal and we had to bring some back with us !!! Highly recommended . 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍

hi sarah and andrew! my family and i have been in cornwall this week, and we did 2 of your walks :) we’re staying on the helford river… and did your helford river walk! it was so, so lovely. my mum said it was the nicest walk she has ever been on! we also did your church cove -> lizard walk yesterday, it was so beautiful and amazing weather. church cove is so cute and quiet, one of my new favourite places! sadly we’re going home today, but will hopefully be back later in the year to try some more of your walks, because we greatly enjoyed these 2!! thank you!! i also love reading gravestones!

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Thank you and it’s lovely to know you enjoyed our walks! Love to your mum! Sarah :)

[@JoannaLouise200]

What an abundance of beautiful colourful blooms! On my first visit to St Just-in-Roseland 35yrs ago, I remember it being amazing, but never this verdant and gorgeous. You have done it proud by catching the dynamic Spring display just at the right time ~ thank you! If only all places of rest could be as perfectly beautiful as this. And I love a visit to an ancient Cornish church! Though my beliefs have changed a bit, it's still as if the echoes of prayers over the ages give you a big hug when you go in. Happy Easter!

[@joyhursey1480]

What a beautiful place it’s lovely, I find old graveyards very intriguing and get your imagination going about past times . The various trees are beautiful too, it won’t be long before I’m on my way to visit Cornwall again.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Glad you enjoyed it, Sarah :)

[@sally-ie7og]

Lovely VT. Memory lane for me. All the year's holidaying in Roseland and living in Falmouth for 10 years. Remember going there as a girl. It's still very beautiful. Thank you so much for going there. My favourite beach on the Roseland is Pendower. Xx

[@heatherdepasquale9803]

Wow! This was one of my favorite videos. I loved the flowers and the detail of your experience. I really felt like I was there experiencing the church, gardens and surrounding area. Not only would budget suggestions be a great idea, but hidden gems as well...they probably go together! Yes, although not a technical walk...I would give it 10 out of 10! Jealous...in the Chicago (USA) area we're just getting our daffodils in bloom and next will come tulips...then rhododendron, azaleas and magnolia. I don't believe we have camellias this far north. Fun fact: my dad would get the local, weekly paper and religiously read the obituary section. He'd say...did you know "so and so" died and then read a bit about him or her. Tombstones are interesting for the people and their stories. Thanks for sharing this with us!

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I love the spring flowers, feels like I’m shedding my winter coat with them! My Grandad used to also scan the obituaries in our local paper, he would chuckle and say, ‘outlived him!’. He himself lost a lung to cancer and he was always pleased to just see another day! Sarah :)

I have never seen such a beautiful Church garden, such a riot of colour with its fabulous spring flowers, what an amazing find with everything one could wish for at very little cost, and even doggies are allowed, in answer to your question Sarah & Andrew your not weird at all, I visited many a church yard with my parents when growing up, I wasn’t as keen reading the grave stones though as I remember always feeling sad 😢 I would loved to have found a church like St.Just-in-Roseland, as you say Sarah a hidden gem 💎 which may have been visited by a ‘Young Jesus’ how much better could it get! the crowning glory for me was Andrew nearly demolishing the Pump stand 😂🤣😂 but it was nothing he couldn’t handle, 😅😅 yes would like to see more budget suggestions, thanks for another delightful video 🙏🤗

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

We had a lovely day out! The gardener spent some time chatting with us, rightly proud of the church yard. Most unusual to have it filled with beautiful blooms, unlike some I can think of, sadly. Sarah :)

[@bernicebest]

@@CornishWalkingTrails I’m not surprised to hear the gardener was very proud of the Church grounds and rightly so as you say Sarah, if only there were more like him, many of my excursions with my parents wouldn’t have been so scary and I may not have had so many nightmares had they been cared for like St. Just-in-Roseland. even the name conjures up something happy 😊 instead of sad 😔

There are also sometimes big family graves with long stories behind them 😊 Thank you for sharing this lovely video 🥰 Torunn.

Beautiful gardens indeed! An excellent idea. Nobody knows these sorts of places like the locals. And no, you are not weird. My husband and I love historic graveyards. Here in CA, there are cemeteries and gardens associated with the original Missions (Catholic Church complexes) established during the Spanish Colonial days along the coast. In the mountains and deserts there are a number of old mining towns (many are ghost towns) like something you'd see in an old Western. :)

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

You paint a lovely picture of the area! Sounds like a place I would love to explore. Sarah :)

[@SpanishEclectic]

@@CornishWalkingTrails It's a big state, but each region has history and features beyond the touristy stuff. My English cousins were thrilled when we took them on a private tour of Lifeguard Headquarters (my sister worked there at the time) with the rescue boats and vehicles, and later to the Mission San Diego de Alcala, which is near the river, surprisingly close to a big shopping mall. :) P.S. There is a fascinating KZbin Channel called Ghost Town Living, which features the old mining town of Cerro Gordo, not far from Death Valley.
