A Boot Up the Tamar Valley
by: Terry Faull

As rivers go the Tamar is a rather modest waterway. From its source on the moors close to the north Cornish coast, it runs less than 50 miles before emptying into the sea at Plymouth Sound. However, its lack of length is more than compensated by the scenery and the richness of the human and natural history to be found along its banks. The ten walks in this book invite you to explore the Tamar Valley along the tidal reaches in the south and also excursions in the higher parts of the valley to see ancient churches and farms and places rich in wildflowers and birdsong.

All of the walks in this guide are circular and begin at a car park or safe parking location with the grid reference provided. Public transport options are given where available. The walks, between 2.5 and 5 miles long, are graded from easy to challenging. Distance and a short description of the terrain are also provided. Clear route directions are provided together with simple sketch maps. One of the features that make the 'Boot Up' series of guides so attractive is the emphasis on good landscape photography and the book is well illustrated throughout with colour photographs. The handy size also means it will slip easily into your pocket, protected by the tough cover.

The walk locations are: Landulph to Cargreen; Bere Ferrers and Weir Quay; Bere Alston; Morwell; Bradstone and Greystone Bridge; Werrington; Boyton; Tetcott and Luffincott; Tamar Lakes and the Bude Canal; Source of the Tamar.

Pub Walks in Cornwall
by: David Hancock

If you enjoy both country walking and visiting country pubs this book should appeal. All the pubs are in Cornwall and all the walks are circular. They vary from easy to more challenging and are described in detail each with its own accompanying sketch map.

There are lots of coastal walks including one from Boscastle, a spectacular cliff walk from Cadgwith cove, a short scenic walk incorporating the evocative Frenchman's Creek, an easy walk from St. Mawes along the Fal estuary and an invigorating ramble to explore Tintagel and the legendary King Arthur's Castle. There are walks from Mousehole, Padstow and Perranuthnoe with views of St. Michael's Mount, a walk from Polperro, the most picturesque and photogenic of all Cornish villages, and a walk from Sennen Cove around Land's End. Most are well off the beaten track, where it is still possible to find peace and tranquility near villages such as Metherell, Lerryn, Crows Nest, Golant and Manaccan to name but a few.

Many of the inns are free houses and details of their opening times, samples from their menu, range of real ales and other interesting facts are listed in the book. There are numerous photographs of the inns and countryside, some in colour.

Pub Walks for Motorists - Devon and Cornwall
by: Michael Bennie

What better way to spend a leisurely few hours than to drive to the countryside, stretch your legs and then visit a good pub for some fine food.

Each route, starting and finishing at or near a recommended pub, is between 4 and 8 miles in length and takes the walker through some of the most beautiful scenery in the south west of England.

Further north, inland and coastal rambles include Portreath, Port Isaac, Bude, Malpas and St Dominick; and in the east Helford, St Mawes and Cawsand.

Numbered paragraphs in the walk description sections correspond with numbers on the maps, to make route finding easier. There are also notes on how to get to the start, where to park, telephone numbers of the pubs, the degree of difficulty of the terrain (easy, moderate or challenging) and where to find other places of interest nearby.

The twenty walks in this book explore the varied landscape and coastlines of Cornwall. They are all between 3 and 7.5 miles in length.

Land's End - Walking the Cornish Coast
by: Oliver Hawker

Cornwall's coastal footpath is a favourite amongst walkers, both for those on holiday and for those who live in the county. 'Land's End' is a different kind of walking book. It's aim is to take the reader on a journey of discovery whilst providing a healthy and enjoyable exercise amid the county's most spectacular scenery. It is also a book that can be enjoyed from the comfort of an armchair, a pleasurable reminder of walks already undertaken or in anticipation of walks yet to come.

As the walk progresses, starting in St Ives and taking the coastal route round to St Michael's Mount, the author links historical events, local legends and stories to points of interest along the way. The author's prowess as a professional photographer shines through in the spectacular pictures used throughout the book, both to illustrate the journey and to help bring the past to life. The walk can be started (or ended) at any point en-route, and thus the whole trip can be made in easy stages. A superb book that will be enjoyed by any walker who loves the Cornish Coast Path, but not a detailed route finding guide.

Cornwall Coast Path


Walking in the Isles of Scilly
by: Paddy Dillon

Basking in sunshine, rising green and pleasant from the blue Atlantic Ocean,fringed by rugged cliffs and sandy beaches, the Isles of Scilly are a joy to explore. There are no tall mountains, but the rocks around the coast are as dramatic as you'll find anywhere. There are no extensive moorlands, but you'll forget that as you walk around the heathery headlands. The islands may be small in extent, but the eye is deceived and readily imagines vast panoramas and awesome seascapes. Sea views take in jagged rocks that have ripped many a keel and wrecked many a ship. The islands are clothed in colourful flowers, both cultivated and wild, and attract a rich bird life, including native breeding species and seasonal migrants.

The Isles form the smallest of Britain's Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and its historic shores have been designated as Heritage Coast. The surrounding sea is protected as a marine park. Archaeological remains abound, not only on the islands, but also submerged beneath the sea. The Isles reveal their secrets and charms to those who walk the headlands, sail from island to island, and take time to observe the sights, sounds and scents of the landscape. While the walks in this guidebook could be completed in as little as a week, a fortnight would allow a much more leisurely appreciation of the islands, and leave you with memories that will last a lifetime.
