Shared Memories of Newquay

Newquay, blowing hole and Porth Island 1887 (ref: 20279)
Year: 1972 Beautiful beaches
My parents lived in Ennors Road in Newquay during the early 70s. They were an RAF family. I was newly-married & lived in Kent, but I used to love visiting them & spending holidays in beautiful Newquay. My new husband used to love sea fishing trips on the small boats & I would go with him, (the only female amongst the men & very often the only one not sea-sick after 4 hours out at sea!). What fantastic beaches, wonderful cornish pasties & never-forgotten clotted cream! My folks died a while back now & I miss the roar of the Atlantic waves to this day.
