Romantic walks for Valetine's Day

It seems we are not the only ones in the mood for a good walk!  I was perusing the VisitCornwall website where they have blogged about various romantic walks for Valentine's Day.  They suggest taking in Daphne Du Maurier’s south coast around Fowey, the setting for some of her most broodingly romantic novels.  The walk to Gribben Head is 4.5miles around an area of headland just west of Fowey.

It is famed for its association with Daphne du Maurier, who lived for many years at Menabillly at Gribbin Head and used it as a model for Manderley in her novel Rebecca.  Sounds like this walk ought to be next on our list!
