Land’s End, the Most Magical Place in Cornwall

Land’s End, the most westerly point of mainland England, has a bit of a reputation by cynics as a tourist trap. I like to think of it as one of the most magical places in Cornwall. Why else would we go back again after having visited back in 2014? 😀

And in 2016, we were 874 miles north at John O’Groats, Scotland. 🙂

We spent out first two evenings of our England trip at the hotel at Land’s End. In the evenings, after all the tourists had left, we would stroll along the coastal pathway to watch the sunset. On our last trip, we strolled along the coastal pathway north towards Sennen, so this time we strolled down the opposite direction towards the Greeb Farm.

Mamma Fox in search of dinner. She was not a part of the Greeb Farm.

Mamma Fox was darting in and out of the pens while her little one watched.

Someone has had a little too many oats…

Not only did we get to see wild foxes, horses, a fat piggy, a llama, and a hundred bunnies… we also got to watch a pod of dolphins!

Ok, ok, so we did the tourist thing and checked out the actual attraction and did some shopping too. 😉
