We had been gifted a Sunday lunch overlooking the sea at Lewinnick Lodge, Newquay. We decided to make a day of it and also have a very breezy walk. I snapped a few quick photos.
The next three pics were taken while walking towards Lewinnick Lodge. In the first of the three we can see the imposing Headland Hotel and Fistral Beach. I have a post of this see: Fistral Beach - One of Newquay's Finest For Surfing
We then had a slow lunch overlooking the sea at the Lewinnick Lodge. It was a lovely meal, with a vegetarian choice for me. My wife said her traditional beef choice was excellent.
It was then time to get walking again and we headed towards the Gannel, which has a large stretch of sand when the tide is out.
The photo below shows a cliff formation seen on the walk.
Walking over a headland we reached the Gannel. If you like sand and lots of elbow room this must be paradise - but a warning: you have to be aware of the tides as this can also be a dangerous place to swim or wade.
There are a couple of seats overlooking the sea.
The tide was beginning to be on the turn.

We slowly made our way back to our car. There is a large public car park by the Lewinnick Lodge.
Moving on: Changing the subject to flowers. I spotted this mature magnolia when out and about, I always think of these as being something special.
And magically there was a nearby second magnolia.
To finish today's blog a bunch, sorry a bouquet, of flowers my wife received on her birthday.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a good weekend and week ahead ~ Mike.
P.S. I have no connection with Lewinnick Lodge!
