MY NEW HOME - PORTHLEVEN

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 พ.ค. 2022
- After nearly 2months of packing up our small 1 bedroom flat in Newquay, we've finally completed our move down to Porthleven. Porthleven is a quiet little fishing village on the outskirts of Helston and strikes of what "old Cornwall" was like.

Good to have you back 👍
Cheers mate !! Hopefully a collab pending ????
Great video and glad you settled in well. Porthleven is a beautiful place. My friend’s in laws are the proprietors of The Atlantic. A very friendly inn and welcoming. They got married at that lovely church right on the corner. Gosh that’s criminal £850,000 for that? Certainly not worth it. Helston is nice too and has a fab tescos 😀
I knew I got it wrong 🤣🤣🤣. I knew it was one of the pubs !! Haha. Yes Helton and porthleven are lovely. Huge Tesco !! Both are still impossible to touch house price wise ?! It’s ridiculous
Great video mate 👍
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it.
Looks like a great place mate. As you know moving is a royal pain. I broke my hand when I was moving 😁 just about settled now.
No way !! It’s been a nightmare. Glad you enjoyed the video !! And glad you’re settled now 🤙🏼
I was lucky enough to grow up there and spend every summer jumping off the harbour walls. Mother still lives there and it’s out of my price range but one day I shall return to where my heart longs to be. Thank you for the stroll around the lev.
That would be amazing to finally get back down here !! I bet growing up in this lovely village was amazing !! Glad you enjoyed the video 🤙🏼 don’t forget to subscribe there will be plenty more videos to come
Looks lovely glad to have you back hope the move went ok and sorry to hear you broke your hand in the process, rest up. See you soon 😊
Thank you !!! Glad you liked the video and hopefully the hand heals quickly 🤣
❤
🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Welcome to my part of the world mate. Was in Porthleven last Sunday looking for a place to enjoy lunch.... forget it! Not a parking spot to be found. Great little village though and only 15 minutes from PZ. The housing situation here has reached crisis point especially for younger people and needs addressing somehow. As you may be aware some villages by the coast like Mousehole for example are ghost towns come winter time, really sad.
That’s class didn’t realise you were down this way !! And tell me about it. That’s why we were forced out of our rental property it’s a joke !!
Indeed, just as bad up here near Fowey, my children 18 and 28 can’t afford to rent let alone buy and they’re, as we are, Cornish born and bred … zero chance of Cornish kids being able to live in the villages they grew up in 😟😟😟
@@alliehunkin5298 I know it’s ridiculous. Obviously I’m not Cornish born and bred but my girlfriend is and it just doesn’t matter houses down here being snapped up by people from London etc. as a holiday home. It’s a joke
@@odysseyxplore Yep it defo needs some intervention asap. It's really unfair and wrong that someone who is born here later has to move elsewhere because of money talking. Perhaps a heavy tax on second home owners might deter some from profiteering as they have in Wales. Others would say it's a free market though so yeah a really thorny issue. 😢
Another great video! Congratulations on moving. Looking forward to whats coming in the future 🙌🏻 keep it up ❤️
Cheers bro !! Thank you for coming to help move ❤️❤️
Great video as usual Liam. 👍
It look beautiful there.
Good luck with everything mate. 😎
Thanks Dave. Hope you’re well 🤙🏼
Love Porthleven mate…we are coming down to Cornwall twice this year and staying in Mousehole…I’m sure we’ll fit in a couple of trips to Porthleven…not seen you and Shaun colab for a bit…!
Yeah, porthleven is brilliant I love it. That’s great you’re coming down and I think me and Shaun will be doing one very soon 🤙🏼
whats the music for ?
Not sure what you mean ?
Watching the displacement of my ethnic group (the Cornish) by new newcomers is always depressing 😢
My girlfriend is Cornish born and bread and so is her family. And most of them have now had to move away from Cornwall including myself. After living in and working for a Cornish company for 5 years it’s such a shame that we’ve been driven away
@@odysseyxplore it's a weird thing, my ethnic group has owned Cornwall (being Cornish) for countless millennia, only to be displaced by outsiders within my fairly sort lifetime, Cornwall's one of the poorest regions in Western Europe, we can't compete with rich londoners. Plev's a class example 25 years ago, you could buy a fishermen's cottage for 30-40 grand, sameones are now 250-300 thousand 🫠
(Feels like I'm watching the ethnic cleansing and death of my ethnically)
@@cornishsea I totally agree. That is why we’ve now had to vacate Cornwall as the house prices are shocking. I know I’m technically an “outsider” however I’m not one of this “rich folk” therefore that is why I’ve had to leave. It’s disgraceful as my girlfriend can’t even live in the place she grew up in and loves
@odysseyxplore To be fair, I don't really have a problem with non-rich people moving down (though it does put house prices up 😅) it the rich second homeowners I can't stand, it's leading to ghost villages with no population for much of the year.
My step grandparents were thrown out the cottage they lived for 50 years by a londoner, who then damaged the grade listed cottage with illegal home improvements (then said he hated the Cornish...)
@@cornishsea I’ve seen this first hand. Where I used to work. We’d bump into plenty of people with the same story. And me and my girlfriend had the same issue with our landlord who was from Manchester. He kicked us out to turn the flat into a holiday home and every time we’ve been back to Cornwall and drove past. The flat is empty
