HaydnH Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 That's a toughy, even knowing the place in the image trying to pin point the hotel with that exact view is hard. Is it actually a hotel, or maybe a B&B, resort or something. Quote
martinmac Posted May 17, 2013 Author Posted May 17, 2013 Its a hotel mate, right across the water from the Island. One additional clue, the name has something to do with a Tursiops truncatus, Quote
martinmac Posted May 17, 2013 Author Posted May 17, 2013 I will give you tomorrows clue today as from memory I wont have good internet there. The name of the village is Cornish for fortified dwelling. Daphne du Maurier wrote many early novels here. We will be getting actross the river and staying at the first hotel we get to which has an appropriate name. The specials menu looks pretty good so it will be scallops again but what is the sauce made from. Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 So here is todays clue. We stopped off at Dartmouth for a stroll and then drove 15 miles up the river to this place. The weather is again playing the game so its a few drinks and some nice food on the terrace. The question is whats happening at the pub this weekend. Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 One more to come tomorrow night which is pretty straightforward and then it pm time. Quote
ATTAK Z Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 ........... The question is what's happening at the pub this weekend. That took me a while !!! Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 Dont get many chances for a holiday now but when I do I go for it. This is becoming a little like tripadvisor. Probably the best food I have had all week though. Quote
raduv66 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 After this one I'm now believing your following following decent scallops around the county Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 Thats one of the reasons I love it down here, the sea bass was fantastic too. Quote
raduv66 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Must admit it's been a while that ive been down that way but even if I don't win I have a great itinerary for next year's holiday . Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 I can thoroughly recommend each place we have stayed, its taken a while but we now have a great range of pubs and hotels down here. I think my next holiday may be in Holland though, my legs are killing me. Quote
raduv66 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 All looks good but I can skip the second clue as I saw him or them many many moons ago ( yes I am that old that I remember the tash .) Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 He is a nice guy and we see him quite a lot to say the least. Quote
raduv66 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 He is a nice guy and we see him quite a lot to say the least. Be early 80s since I last saw him in London strange thing is that I went on to buy a lot of material from the support band that were great Irish and signed to U2s label at the time. Quote
martinmac Posted May 19, 2013 Author Posted May 19, 2013 Its amazing to see what he has done over the years, guitarist with Thin Lizzy and Fade to Gray for example. There is someone who has posted on this thread who has a guitar signed by him that I am after too. I have tickets to see Simple Minds at the MEN with Ultravox supporting, bought them the first day they were available and as usual I am at work. Quote
