7 days in St Agnes Cornwall
I just had a wonderful week in St Agnes. I stayed in a lovely holiday rental off Vicarage Street. We Managed to fit in 6 Walks in the week you can read about below with links to the detailed walks. We went out of season so unfortunately the museums were closed but I hope to go back and visit them sometime.
