TREWETHETT FARM & BUDE- NORTH CORNWALL

This is our annual pilgrimage to Trewethett Farm Caravan Club site on the north Cornwall coast. It's famous for spectacular sunsets and high winds. It didn't disappoint on either item!

And so to Boscastle where I'm trying to take some different photos having visited so many times.

Do they have RABBITS here?

TREWETHETT FARM CARAVAN CLUB SITE

So the weather has improved, or has it, see later! As per our itinerary, we’re at Trewethett Farm Caravan Club site near Boscastle on the North Cornwall coast. The journey from home is quite short and easy, however there were a couple of problems. Di was unable to drive the car to our coupling up point due to gout in her elbow and thumb and we lost the right flashing indicator on the car about 4 miles from the site. We got over the first problem by coupling up at the end of our road at home, towing through the village and country lanes, not something I relish as there are often large tractors towing even larger trailers! Fortunately we didn't meet any.

Number two problem was solved as Di noticed a cable trailing on the ground when we arrived. Three wires were worn through so I suppose we were lucky only to have lost one flashing indicator! I repaired it later with a gas soldering iron and insulating tape but it needs to be better secured.

Our first day was very pleasant with some sunshine, Timmy even sat out while I did the wiring repair, but the night was vastly different with gale force winds rocking the MH. Not a lot of sleep was had. This really is a superb site, right on a cliff top looking west with spectacular sea views, but when it blows by heck does it blow!
