Omg love love love polperro, we love sitting on the harbour wall and watch the world go by.
Perfect place to do that! Sarah :)
I love those little Cornish harbours! Would love to visit polperro one day, will check out some more of your vids 👍
LOVE Polperro !!!
We parked in small National Trust car park at Talland Bay climbed Mt Everest down hill towards Polperro straight In the pasty eating shed Andew found around the coast to Talland easy thank you C W T 👍😉
Beautiful town.
All of your walking trails are really great. I watch them whenever I get a spare half hour with a nice cup of tea.
Thank you very much and you are very welcome! Sarah :)

Loved the video Polperro my favourite place from a reincarnated wrecker
Loveeeeeee all your amazing videos!!!! Please make more videos 🙏🏼,,!!!!👸🏻🤴🏻👍🏻👍🏻💐💐💐💐💐💐
Thank you! We would love to make more videos but, alas, it is not viable - LOL! Do you have notifications turned on? We upload every week! Sarah :)
Probably the quintessential Cornish fishing village is Polperro. No wonder we smuggled back in the day. My ancestors lived in the barns at Porthallow,Talland back in the 1800s,i'd imagine being that poor they would've participated in the free trade,must look into it.Maybe that house over the fence was Richard and Judy's as they live in Talland! Apparently the actor Stewart Granger was part brought up in the Crumplehorn,prefer the Blue Peter myself especially Christmas time,like being in a loft!
Hi Andy, We rarely get up to Polperro, and we are trying out the pubs, one by one! The Blue Peter certainly has character in barrel loads! We can't find any link with our families and Cornish freetrade, although there are some good old yarns about other misdemeanors! Sarah :)
Hi both, Polperro looks such a lovely place...no place like gnome!🤣🤣🤣Another lovely hike, great to hear about the smuggling! Quite a few footpath diversions by the looks of things and a lovely quiet beach to enjoy! Thanks guys, regards, Simon😎👍👍👍
My favourite places and walk, THANKS AND TAKE CARE.
Thanks, you too! Sarah :)
Great video again love your hat Sarah ,you both did well getting up them hills
Cheers and thanks for watching! Sarah :)
Love these two come across really well. Love it.
This is a great walk. Enjoy your day
This walk brought back many happy memories for my wife Christine who remembers the coast walk from when she was a child and staying at Westcliff Old Court. ( The house that the path was rerouted through with the new fence). Thank you, your walks are very interesting to watch with your great enthusiasm.
Thank you! Sarah :)
Loved Polperro! Went twice while we were there on our 3 week holiday June 2018. That walk would be a bit too much for us. Loved our cream tea at Talland Bay Hotel and the views are incredible! This South Carolinian loves watching your videos. Thank you for sharing!
Oh, how cool! Keep watching! Sarah :)
Polperro is beautiful. I love the Cornish ingenuity. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous part of Cornwall.
You caught me out with this one...I wasn't expecting two vids in a week! But welcome for sure! Liked the name of the pub...the Three Pilchards (just about how many you get in a tin these days!). But what a climb.... oh my....not for the faint-hearted. More like a mountain hike than a walk this time....but so lovely to see Polperro with the streets and beaches empty. Real beauty shines through. J x
Hi Judy, A little treat - an extra video! Glad you enjoyed it! Sarah :)
I really enjoyed your jaunt it was quite Beautiful. My fathers side of the family comes from Talland. My Maiden name is Tallent. We have a Family Crest. I would so Love to see more history on Talland in Cornwall. I Thank You Both So Very Much. I live in the USA.
We enjoyed visiting Talland Bay, first time we had ever been there! Lovely to hear that you have such a personal connection, Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails I have researched our family tree on my fathers side. It's so sweet to finally see and hear more. Thank You.
What a quaint beautiful area. I really liked this one a lot.
Lovely, thank you
Wow seems every village is more beautiful than the one before. If that makes sense. I wonder if some of the villages have tours of the old homes.
Thank you for sharing your walk. I only just remember going to Polperro Sarah so nice to see it again but not Talland Bay. It looked a longer walk than 3 miles and that up-hill walk looked quite a challenge so well done!ave a good week as I think we have all been promised warmer weather so Enjoy your Easter.. Warm greetings, Julie.
We are beset with wind and rain at the moment - the garden is taking a bashing!! Sarah :)
loving your videos been going to looe for the past 30years love it.
Thank you! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails He must have drank a hell of a lot of beer if he's been going to Looe for the last 30 years lol.
Hello again! It's that pesky 'cream first' Devonian again. It's a little late to comment on this vlog I know, but my wife and I have just returned from a wonderful weekend in your beautiful county. Saturday, we were in lovely Looe, but yesterday we spent a magical day in Polperro. The weather was a little blowy but gloriously sunny and, with you two and this C.W.T. episode in mind, we explored the narrow streets, shops and viewpoints before liquid refreshments on the roof garden of the Three Pilchards. But the main point of this comment is to thank you both for the heads up about the 'secret' lookout shelter at 'The Loft' house where, whilst looking out at the wonderful view of Polperro, my wife Tracey and I enjoyed our delicious pasties that we'd bought for lunch in the town. As great fans of your channel, it was strange knowing you'd actually been there yourselves and possibly even sat on the bench as well. And yes, as Andrew joked, we did sit at the corner of the bench reserved for us subscribes, hahaha! Regards, 'Devon' Tony.
We remember! If we get big enough - we could get a blue plaque!!! That would be so funny! LOL! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails LOL! Well, your channel is pretty big now, and rightly so. Blue plaque? Well, who knows? Haha! ;-)
When I met jeannie after just coming down to cornwall just 2 days after we started chatting on orange chat on mobile.i took Jeannie to Polperro for our first date.the cute little buses that take people up and down are they still running.we do have ebikes to use.im fit enough but jeannie can’t walk too far.being 70 this year.she was a smoker for 50years but I got her on ecigs and she doesn’t cough like used to and keeps as fit as she can .she loves her paddleboard .i stand on :mine jeannie sits and kayaks hers.St mawes one of jeannies fav spots.Its lovely to watch your videos .Many thanks both of you.take care .steve x
Enjoy your trip! Sarah :)
Cornish Walking Trails thanks 🙏
Looked a blustery old day ut got to say I loved the Crumplehorn Inn, looked real rustic and typically Cornish. Interesting history lesson and it was such a shame about the weather on this walk, as on a sunny day, this would have been brilliant, although I have seen better beaches on your videos down there. On a sunny day, a definite 10 from me, cheers Alan
Quite a small beach with some chunky pebbles - perfect for tower building though! Sarah :)
Its beautiful how every coastline is unique. Thank you and glad no one had a heart attack 👌🏻👍🏻
Great video guys. Talland Bay features as the decoy setting in Arthur Quiller Couch's tragi-comedy on smuggling in Fowey and Looe during the Napoleonic wars. Highly recommended if you haven't already read it! John
That was fun to watch. Thank you for posting.👍👍
Thank you and you're welcome1 Sarah :)
Thanks guys, just discovered your channel, unfortunately I have not been able to get down this year so this is great for my mental health
I hope you enjoy watching and we put a smile on your face! Sarah :)
This video is so refreshing. Nice scenery, plenty of interesting smuggling chat and and a bit of personality too. So glad I heard you prenounce it "Jobe" I will be filming there next week and was all set to say his name like it was a job lol. I'll be looking for that corner seat now that I'm subscribed 😉
no place like gnome :D :D I love those unrelated inserts. Also ... of course, such a beautiful landscape. Watching your videos feels so much like a relaxing weekend in nature
I never know what he is going to do! ....or say! Sarah :)
We walked this one this year. It’s an amazing place. Great vid. Subbed! 👍
Awesome! Thank you! Sarah :)
That bench where Andrew said eat your pasty is where jeannie sat in her Wilmer coat I call it ,her parka.when I took her photo.cant find photo now.😂
Great walk. Really enjoyed it. Very interesting to see the area out of season without the crowds. Thanks for the smuggling info. 🤗
It was really quiet with being out of season and poor weather! Sarah :)
Hi guys, I like the way you date all your awesome videos,the scenery is so beautiful were you are now,you do find such interesting locations
To watch on your brilliant walks,tony
Stunningly beautiful walk!...I love Cornwall 'out of season' - it's my favourite time to be there : )
Mine too! Like we have the place to ourselves! Sarah :)
We’ve done this walk many times and that hill back up is never ending! Nice views at the top though and all worth it.
I will never forget that hill! It is the datum for all hills! Sarah :)
What a surprise to have a bonus video on a Sunday morning to watch while I eat my breakfast. I had to stop watching several times to flip my pancakes. Polperro looks like a fantastic place to visit even in rainy weather. What interesting history to hear from you two. Nice to see the Coastal path repaired. Thanks for a great video and you sort of built an Inukshuk with the stones. LOL.
Oooo! I think I will have pancakes for my tea! Sarah :)
Well I certainly enjoyed your walk today.....The story telling brought the Smuggling history of Cornwall to life and I did have to laugh when you said that the Government in days gone by taxed anything and everything....ha ha! Well that hasn’t changed very much has it? Polperro is in my recollection summed up as “all hill” mostly up hill.....but on the plus side...your trade this for some spectacular scenery and “o so pretty” village. For watchablity I would give this a 10/10....smashing.
Cheers! Sarah :)
Beautiful place, love watching these, either before sleep or when I wake, so relaxing...xx
Hi, we have been told by another subscriber that she watches our video before she goes to sleep for the same reason! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails insomnia cured Sarah! 😊
Its how so many areas look like small town in rural ky or va in the u s. Minus the beautiful coast of cornwall🥴
We absolutely love Polperro, and this video was so enjoyable, and it was great to see it out of season. We usually do the stretch of the SWCP from Talland to Polperro as part of a longer walk, and that hill out of Talland is sooo steep! But worth it for the views. Fascinating history really sets the scene for the area. We are looking forward to doing re-opened path. Thank you for another fab video.
Andrew wouldn't even give me a tow! I wish we had taken the dogs, they would definitely help to pull me up the hill! Sarah :)
Have a safe journey knome!
I love the coast and the villages. Hoping not to be too critical but a little less hi pitched laughing might be in order. Thank you again for wonderful walks.
Well we seem to both love the Cornish Coast! However, I can't help my laugh! Sarah :)
How rude!
I love Polperro , we catch the bus at looe to Polperro and walk back along the coast to looe. A walk worth doing That hill out of Talland, is steep. Did you know Richard Madley and Judy Finnigan have a house up behind the beach cafe at Talland bay. Another fantastic film you pair, well done.
Oooo! Perhaps they were home! beautiful tranquil spot! Sarah :)
Great!
Really exciting with the smugglers and pirates along the Cornish coastline. I can well understand that they found the rugged landscape quite useful for hiding their goods :-) And Polperro looks like a lovely place :)
Hi Torunn, I hope we have wetted your appetite for your future rambles! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails Oh yes Sarah. You sure have 😁
You forgot wreckers as well from a reincarnated wrecker
Sarah said she's blowing and Andrew smiled lol
Fantastic walk! Really must visit Polperro, it looks stunning. (I'm heading straight for the pasty bench!!) The coastal path route looked great...thanks for all the smuggling history...really interesting stuff!! The hill back looked a bit of a nightmare though.....your poor knees!!!! Lovely vid!!👍💕😊
Good pasty bench! I did wonder where he was going! The hill back - the trouble is that I sit down in an office all week but Andrew has an active job so he's always yards ahead while I am puffing on behind! Sarah :D
Really enjoying your walks, making my way through them all slowly. Thanks for all the info re smuggling . You two are fit as butchers dogs, I could never do that steep walk back !
Hi Caroline and welcome to our channel! I hope you enjoy having a delve through! We met a couple of subscribers this weekend and they have used our channel for researching their Cornish holiday - imagine!! :) Sarah
@@CornishWalkingTrails thanks, glad to be here. We ate going to Fowey in Sept so I was interested in seeing those videos. Thanks again. Love the corney jokes too believe it or not 😉👍
@@carolinejohn4537 Love Fowey, Fowey Hall Walk is great fun with the two ferries! Sarah :)
@@CornishWalkingTrails thanks Sarah, will definitely do that ! Many thanks
Bleddy seagulls ! 😅
I have done this walk but from looe to polperro that climb up the hill is a killer we was knackered when we got into polperro had to get a taxi back to looe
LOL !! Yes it seems to go on forever, certainly a workout! Thanks for watching Sarah :)
- I knew about this place thanks to the game The Last Crown
Thanks for the exclusive bench, no dogs? How are they? We love the little history lesson 👍 happy Easter 🐇 ciao
The dogs are fine! This was filmed while we were staying away for the accommodation videos and we left them with our daughter! We have kept them nice and cool during this really hot spell! Sarah :)
What a fantastic place. Love it
I have spent many happy times doing the walk from Polperro to Looe, so glad to see they have reopened the original coast path, that road out of Talland Bay is an absolute killer to climb up and even going down is not easy on the legs. It is so nice to get a weekly fix of Cornwall, a place i love to visit as often as possible and would love to move to one day, so envious of you two living in such a lovely part of the country. Just wondering if you have changed your camera or editing software as your recent videos seem to have jerky motion unlike the earlier ones which were very smooth. Great channel keep them coming !
Hi Chris, Thanks for your lovely comment! Our old Nikon died last year and we started using another camera in the autumn. We have not noticed any difference in the quality, in fact we thought the clarity was much better. Maybe its when we go on a tighter zoom, or walk while filming - we will bear it in mind though, feedback appreciated! Sarah :)
Schön
Great presentation and style. Off to Polperro next week - going to retrace your footsteps. Keep up the good work. Quick question - if you took removed the road route back up the dreaded hill would you down grade it from tough to moderate (return the coast path) ?
Definitely easier than the road route! The coast path has sections of rock that were slippery when we walked. If you are not already down here, it's been quite wet this week, so I would expect it to be muddy! But this is Cornwall - we could be basking in sunshine next week, fingers crossed! Sarah :)
