Coverack - Cornwall - October 2020

            This is the last in the series of our visit to Cornwall in October 2020. 

As most of us know by now, unless we’ve hibernating, this period of our lives was blighted the most serious pandemic since the one back in 1918 when the Spanish Flu hit Europe and eventually the world.

Coverack is a fishing village that goes back a very long time. So most of our fishing villages it’s been much more difficult in the recent decades to make a living from it. So Coverack, always a nice holiday destination, has upped its game and is now full of houses that are holiday lets. This happens mainly in the spring and the summer months but visitors do come here most of the year round, albeit in lower numbers out of the traditional holiday season. 

We enjoyed the couple of hours we spent here. The weather held out for us, and we found a lovely cafe that gave us decent tea and coffee and, despite our better judgement, also ended up with us buying some cake. Very naughty considering we’d not long had breakfast at our hotel!

The people we met were warm, friendly and welcomed us into the fold. 

The pictures, I hope, capture something of the atmosphere of Coverack. I’m not sure I’d want to stay here for too long, but I’m sure those who do enjoy the tranquility of this lovely little part of Cornwall.

I hope those who look at the photographs can get a good feel of what it’s like there.
