No not keep Cornwall for the Cornish its just not big enough for to many visitors. The roads are a nightmare in the summer plus the upkeep of the beaches comes out of our water rates that are the highest in the country. They have built on the car parks so parking can be a nightmare. The house prices have just shot through the roof, as so many people are moving down here. It’s a lovely place and its getting spoiled.

Merlin. You have to be aware of the bigger picture. It's the same everywhere. The only places you can go that has not, or is not, being developed are the places no one want's to go.

Im`e afraid i fall into the catagory of selling my house in Roche near St.Austell to people from Hastings who sold theirs to someone from the big city,its true the roads get conjested but we all rely on the tourist trade in one way or another.Just hope there is enough room for me as at the moment we are in Tampa airport waiting for our flight home

Flying rats and pests perhaps, but to ease it's suffering was the humane thing to do
Bookmarked the Magic Cove site last time you posted on it Puss, we plan a trip there before summer ends.
How early do I need to book in advance?
M&D
They are fully booked at least to end Aug as I understand it but the lady is worth a phone call to find out so you can discuss discounts.
There is also another small site which you actually have to drive through to get to Magic Cove which is just as nice but I can't remember what its called. It also has I believe a sauna and a solarium (or was it a tap and a microwave oven), can't remember,

Hi John
I do agree.... but not with everything you say in your post.....there are several areas in Britain where over development or change is not only discouraged it is just not allowed, no matter how many people wish to go there...they are known as National Parks and you can find out all about them here:

It is a shame that the Cornish Coast was not designated as a National Park years ago, it would have saved it from its worst enemy...Us
The N. Parks are visited by many of us but since the activities there usually involve some personal effort to get the most out of the environment not many of the grockels go anwhere near them...thank god!

A good point about the National Trust not owning swathes of Cornwall and this is because it belongs to Big Ears who reaps mega money from this gold mine.
