This is Tom's Net Loft. A simple holiday home. We stayed there about 5 years ago. It would seem little has changed!

Dist:0.3km<br/>These homes and holiday accommodation have enviable views of the coastline here. In effect front row seats for all weather conditions, seasons and changes.

Dist:0.4km<br/>South-east of the village of Porthleven, Highburrow has a number of houses stretched along Parc-an-als Cliff. I hope these are local homes, but they may be holiday homes. They are quite tastefully done with their stone facing.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The landscape and seascape had taken on a grey hue and the slightly choppy seas have brought people out of a pub to photograph the waves.

Dist:0.4km<br/>On a bright day these sea-facing houses seemed intensely pink and white, just like marshmallows. The colours are more subdued in the photo.

Dist:0.4km<br/>I suppose more accurately this is Highburrow, the south-eastern extension of the village where some lovely houses lie, on top of Parc-an-als Cliff with lovely views.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This is on the junction of two roads towards Loe Bar. I would not have known it was an old chapel, if the sign had not told me. I imagine many properties in the village are holiday cottages. Some of these may well be.

Dist:0.5km<br/>This three-mile beach is often battered by the full force of south-westerly gales. With Porthleven harbour at the far end.

    I am trying to trace Bob Fairbairn/Fairburn and Jane Manaton about my brother, Adam Legg. If anyone knows Bob, would they ask him to telephone his sister again. Many thanks Amanda Shaw
