Since the lighthouse is associated with the literary work of Virginia Woolf: Tilman Spengler is the man on German television who brings great authors and their works closer to culturally interested viewers. His series "Classics of World Literature" pays tribute to writers from all eras with a 15-minute episode (in German). One of these writers is Virginia Woolf (1882–1941). The segment can be found in the ARD Mediathek (ARD Media Library) at the following link: https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/klassiker-der-weltliteratur/virginia-woolf/ard-alpha/Y3JpZDovL2JyLmRlL3ZpZGVvLzkxODAyOWQ5LTZjOGUtNDEwYi1iODgyLTUwNzNlNTM3MWJiZA

For me, St. Ives is one of the most idyllic places on Cornwall's coast. Here you will not only find shops, pubs and nice cafés, but also many small art galleries.

A picturesque little place.

A great place that is occasionally admired in Rosamunde Pilcher films.

Mousehole (Cornish: Porthenys) is a village and fishing port in Cornwall. It is about 4 km south of Penzance on the shore of Mount's Bay. An islet called St Clement's Isle lies about 350m offshore from the harbor entrance.

This barometer was originally loaned to Mousehole by Admiral Fitzroy, the founder of the Meteorological Institute. The intention was to provide data to the institute to improve weather forecasting and storm forecasting. But also to warn the fishermen of impending bad weather in an effort to reduce the loss of life. In 2009, the Meteorological Institute donated the barometer to Mousehole Port Authority.

The harbor of Mousehole is very pleasant to walk along. A nice break from a bike ride.

A visit to St Michael's Mount is well worth it, even if the entrance fee is a hefty £26.00 for the castle and gardens (2023). You have to make the necessary time for it. Avoid the weekends because then it is very busy!
