| Polkerris Beach | 2018-09-02 | Stayed at Penhale camp site near Fowey. A short walk to Polkerris Beach where we knew that dogs were banned but didn't know that the ice cream shop would shut up shop at half four - outrageous!

| Fowey to Megavissey | 2018-09-03 | A walk down into Fowey and then a ferry from Fowey to Megavissey. On the trip into Fowey the ferry had spotted a large whale and porpoises but no such luck on our trip.
From Megavissey, we walked round to Portmellon.
The 26 miles wasn't all dog walking - it includes the return ferry distance!

| Treen coast path walk | 2016-06-18 | A coast path walk from Treen campsite (near Porthcurno which is near Lands End). The guide book said 4.5 miles but it ended up being 7.2 miles AND with lots of up and downie bits as well. Very nice though.

| Woolacombe and Putsborough | 2017-09-22 | Scooby wouldnt have been happy if we'd come to north Devon and not given him a run along Woolacombe Beach at low tide. In a fairly wet and windy two week holiday, this was the only walk where we actually got soaked by the rain. However, we dried out a bit in the cafe at Putsborough and then the walk back in the wind meant that we were dry by the time we got back to the camper van on Marine Drive.
The photos include a couple from North Morte campsite looking at the sunset over Lundy Island.

| West Parley visit | 2021-10-22 | Camper vanning in West Parley for a meet up with old school friends.
Went for a walk down Church Lane past the Multiple Sclerosis day centre and then on to the River Stour. Lots of Whiteley family memories / connections.

| Gorran Haven | 2023-09-07 | Was meant to be a walk around Dodman Point but we got up too late and it was just too hot for an elderly, black doggie!
So down to the rather lovely Gorran Haven and then back via Vault Beach.

| Cosawes Park to Ponsanooth | 2023-11-21 | Checking out the walk from the campsite to the nearest pub to see whether we'd want to do it in the dark after a couple of pints (answer - not really). Ponsanooth viaduct quite impressive.

| Porthcurno, Porthwarra and Gwenapp Head | 2024-09-16 | Slight variations on an old walk. The cafe at Porthgwarra is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays - damn!
Gwenapp Head is so much more inspiring than Lands End. Spotted some Cornish Choughs eating cow shit. Back through fields of sweetcorn higher than either of us.
And then down to Porthcurno Beach with an ice cream. Felt very odd / disloyal without Scooby Hound.
