We stopped last night in a carpark overlooking Roadford Lake and had a quiet but cold night. We were toasty warm with our winter duvet topped with a thick crocheted blanket that Em’s grandparents gave us. Getting1 up this morning was cold but we soon warmed up once we hit the road.
After lunch we put on our walking boots and set out along the coast path to Trebarwith Strand. This short but interesting walk took us past the old coastal slate quarry workings where you could make out the remains of buildings and tracks cut into the slate.
We dropped down into Trebarwith Strand which is a narrow inlet where the slate was loaded onto boats, before taking the inland route back to Kiki. As we crossed a field we spotted a lamb lying on the grass - it didn’t get up when we approached it so we stopped at the farm and let them know.
First stop this morning was Lidl in Launceston for supplies before heading to a large carpark in Tintgel. We parked up and paid our £8 for 24hrs (overnight parking is allowed here!) and had coffee before settling out for a walk around the town.
After walking up and down the main street, we found a short circular walk which took us up to Tintagel church and then we followed the coast path to Tintagel castle. We looped back round to Kiki for lunch.
Just before we got to the carpark we saw Kiki driving towards us! As she got closer we realised it was an identical motorhome - this was the first time we had seen one the same as Kiki.
Whilst we were eating lunch Kiki’s sister joined us in the car park. We had a chat with the owners and swapped some stories.

Back at the carpark we are in company with half a dozen other motorhomes. We had our evening meal and settled down for some Netflix.
