Cars and vans are just fine in Port Isaac. The issue is other vehicles and mostly tourists not understanding how to move to the side. Down at the bottom it gets a bit hectic with delivery vans.
Kev, I'm from North Devon, I have a similar video driving the other way in a Land Rover Discovery 3 I can confirm it fits, there was a wheel rub but it fits. (your vid comes up as a suggested as from mine) Good luck buddy and a wave from me when I'm in Kern next x (as its like 6 miles from here will be next week at some point)
Hi buddy from across the Tamar. Hope the wheel rub was not an expensive repair but look at it this way, you went back to Devon with a bit of history from Kernow, the wall of the property. I will be crossing into your territory tomorrow taking my son back to the unliked land that is East England. YUCK.
Thanks for your comment but I had my cell phone on a stand and that is what I was using to video. But the best thing is hearing my V8 679hp engine going up the hill.
Toni. Thanks for your comment. Living in cornwall, as I do, many roads are like this all over cornwall and it becomes quite easy to manoeuvre through these areas. People who visit our lovely West Country may not have encountered roads like this from where they live so it is a bit difficult for them to navigate. Hope you enjoyed your visit to Port Isaac and the West Country and will return again soon. Regards.
@@cornwallkev201 Hi Kevin thanx for the reply, we are coming back to cornwall this year, last year we stayed near st.Blazey and travelled around, this year we are staying in mevagissey, I really love Cornwall, it is so very quaint and real clean it is a pleasure to visit, if you encounter a white 500 abarth in the lanes run lol lol lol take care
Hi Toni. You are staying not to far from where I live. I live in Biscovey in Par which is near to St Austell and not to far from Mevagissey. Enjoy your stay and I will keep a look out for your car. Lol
Lol. If you drive like miss daisy then you will be like 90% of the population here in cornwall. The other 10% don't have a clue how to drive. Lol. How they got their licence is one of life's mysteries.
@@cornwallkev201 OMG that is not far from me i live in Ingatestone, I was born in plaistow east London and moved to Ingatestone when I was very little, I am hoping one day that i can settle somewhere in Cornwall and retire, a few years yet lol .
Oh I'm sorry for insulting you and obviously superb driving judgement of our narrow roads here in Cornwall. Oh, just a quick question, have you driven through Port Isaac by any chance as My wife is not a driver so her judgement in tight spaces with a vehicle is not that good?
Yes Paul, it did. But it has its advantages and disadvantages. Port Isaac is a quaint fishing village on the north coast of Cornwall and until Doc Martin series started filming there, the port had very few visitors and fishing was the main income for the local people, but now, the visitors help keep the local shop owners open. I just wish, as I have seen it for myself, that a small percentage of the visitors have no respect for the shop owners, some have had abusive language shouted at them and that is just not acceptable, local residents inconvenienced by people not parking at the main car park or at St Endellion car park. We welcome visitors here to Cornwall but please remember, respect our local environment as we still live here.
@@MrRoute6600 Well you will be welcome to come over and visit, and when you do, visit as much of Cornwall as you can to get an overall perspective because some areas are not good areas to live, just like anywhere in the world but, the majority of Cornwall is peaceful and respectful and the views are special and spectacular.
John sanders. I have never been to Florida so how can I drive like, as you quote, a shit. The video is in cornwall so your comment is meaningless and incorrectly applied you TWAT.

Daunting drive, and missing pedestrians…
