Polperro
Polperro is one
of the most popular and picturesque cornish fishing villages. Upon
arrival park in the huge car park at the top of the hill (£1.50p
for 2 hours and £2 for 4 hours 2006). Amazingly you will then have
a choice of 5 different ways to take you down to the harbour. Most
people choose to enjoy the picturesque 15 minutes walk, dotted with pretty
eating places and cottages, down to the main part of the village and the
harbour. Others have a choice between the Horse Bus (75p each way
plus an ice cream-2006), the piscie carriage, the landrover (it is free
on the return journey!) and the Polperro Tram Company little bus-all at
low rates. If you do choose to walk you will not be disappointed
to have made the effort. At the end of the walk is the main part of this
pretty village, with colour washed cottages, and an array of shops, cafes,
restaurants and old pubs with lots of outdoor seating- fish menus
with locally caught fresh fish. Proceed to the delightful harbour
where there is a colourful array of fishing and sailing boats. There are
boat trips to Looe and Fowey and fishing trips for mackerel. A surprise
is the delightful little sandy beach which lies adjoining the harbour and
is visible at low tide.
