Just time for a quick visit to Fistral Blue Apartment before our first visitors of the season arrive and what a weekend!
Opening the blinds on the wall of glass on Saturday morning having arrived the previous evening in the dark never disappoints – 30ft waves breaking outside the bay and over Pentire Point, the sea churning and full of froth. After a brisk and invigorating walk into Newquay for a late breakfast it was down to Gwithian to watch the extreme surfers in the Red Bull Storm Chase event (highlights here). Back just in time to cuddle up on the sofa in the warm and watch the 6 nations rugby with a large glass of red wine.
A quick change and spruce up before a great meal at Quicky Chicky a new friendly family run Portuguese restaurant in Newquay. The exceptionally good charcoal grilled meat and fish all washed down with some authentic Sangria – we could have been in Portugal!
Up early the next morning for another brisk but sunny stroll along Esplanade Road and off down to pretty Mevagissey Harbour for coffee with friends and family. A quick visit to a relative and we’re off home again refreshed and ready for another working week.
