Our favourite walk around Hayle, Cornwall!

Like your review of Hayle in beautiful Cornwall , we stayed at the haven caravan park at Hayle last June and loved it the village and benches are fantastic , we have booked and going to same resort and to Hayle again end of June and beginning of July this year 2024 can't wait ❤ been in the bucket of blood pub it's around a mile from resort it's a lovely pub and will be paying it a visit again coming summer 🌞

My daughter's favourite part of Cornwall to stay. She decided to go to the Lizard instead this year, but Hayle is somewhere she loves. She's currently watching my grandsons on the rides at Alton Towers though at the mo (bit different from the beaches of Hayle!) so will tell her to watch this on her return! You are fast becoming The Cornish Walking Trail History Channel and as your vlogs are so much more interesting than anything on TV, it's a wonder no one has snapped you up yet!! A great evening walk. x J x

Driven through Hayle thousands of times never really given a second look thanks to you in the history of you’ve explained it looks different now thank you 👍👌😉

Thank you both again, professional and humorous , and keeps me in touch with my herritage.

Nice to see you in Hayle and I was waiting for this one since, I love Hayle very much and I love the historical presence the town has with the beaches and old historical buildings.

Had the immense pleasure of visiting Hayle a couple of times a few weeks back and it was a bustling, vibrant place. Unfortunately, my visits were just fleeting, so didn't have much chance to explore properly, but the architecture and general feel for the place will ensure that I return to spend more time here. Oh! And it was nice to see that someone had named a boat after my Wife, Sarah and the Philps Pasties were amazing!!!

Love this beautiful community. I love the history of this once company owned town. The beach is gorgeous. Good to see doggie enjoying the walk.

Great video again guys. I love Hayle, been going there every Summer for the past 30 years, usually stay at the Haven camp, Riviere Sands. Paradise Park is a great visit there too.

I really enjoy all of your lovely walks. It’s so nice to get the history about all the places you go to. 👍🏻🙂

Wonderful! I can picture this trail. Lovely to see your clip today. Thank you for sharing, much love ML from a little further down the south coast of Cornwall ❤

My wife and I have lived in Phillack for 40 years and it often takes something like your video to illustrate what a beautiful place it is. Thanks.

Hi Sarah and Andrew. The video about Hayle was lovely, some very interesting stories. As a child, always new we weren't far away from Penzance when we went through Hayle. I think it was maybe the first glimpse of the sea on the North coast that did it! 💖

The sluices used to scare me as a child. There were tracks on that bridge and there was a line that ran across the road to Hayle railway station.

A fabulous evening walk around Hayle, the grizzly story surrounding the Bucket of Blood was rather chilling though, no wonder the pub was haunted! the story of the Holy Well was fascinating, the sheep jokes were amusing Guy’s, and the Cornish scenery was spectacular with some amazing blooms you captured on camera, like the beautiful photo of your faithful friend, he is so cute, he was probably thinking that’s enough stroking of walls, let’s get on with our wonderful adventures like discovering Hayle Nature Reserve with all of it’s irresistible smells of the earth and natures amazing creations, much more to a dogs liking, thanks mum! I’m no longer bored! and at last Andrew got his shot of the train 🚂 making him a happy bunny 🐰 Excellent footage as always, thanks 🙏 again Sarah & Andrew for a delightful video! Oh! didn’t ‘The Cornish Copper Mine’ get a mention in ‘Poldark’ 🤗🥀👋

Great video! You are correct about the rails crossing the road. From the harbour, across the bridge and then there was a level crossing there. The branch line ran up the incline, now the footpath/cycle way (where you filmed the painted man). The train line ran up and joined into the up main line. You can still see the part of the bridge where it joined in. There was then a cross over on the other side of the viaduct for the train to cross onto the down mainline. Hope this helps!

Re railway lines in Hayle. I first visited Hayle in September 1976, I camped in the gardens of a bungalow that backs onto the Towans. I remeber the old raliway lines that came up the side of the river/inlet where there was some kind of works, quite industrial. A line crossed the iron bridge and went over the road passing inland between buildings on the other side. I seem to remeber looking at an old Ordenance survey map and the line eventualy joined up to the main line I think. The remnants of this railway remained for some years after that. I seem to remeber that the detrious from Hayles days when industry flurished was everywhere and it was quite run down then. Cornwall still felt a land apart in those days.

Hi Sarah and Andrew. Really enjoyed your walk around Hayle today. So much history and beautiful sea and floral views.

Absolutely stunning Sarah . We are staying on Tom's in 2 weeks with the dog 🐕 ❤️🙏😊

This was a beautiful and really interesting walk. And you always have so much great history to share. I absolutely enjoyed watching 😍👏 Thank you. Torunn 😊

Excellent walk! Loved the stories of dueling sluice gates and the Bucket of Blood Pub. Issuing 'script' to workers that could only be redeemed at Company stores is a horrid practice; it happened here in the U.S. as well. At first glance the scoria slag blocks looked like basalt or other volcanic rock. Happy to learn it was an early recycling practice. A lovely area; I really enjoyed the garden at the end, full of flowers and humor. I'm surprised to see palms and such growing outdoors in the U.K., but then I recall that Cornwall is about as far south as it gets. :)
