Wasn’t the caravan site at the top of that tiny little road by The Crumplehorn Inn by any chance Dianne?

Yes thank the 'Lordylord it never moved after he parked the car to stop it…allegedly

trying to recall which cove was very steep down to the sea and when the tide came high or weather was ruff…the sea would come up on to the narrow lane…Dont think there was any parking down by the ‘beach’’ thinking now you park and walk down to it…
