      Best Tourist route round 'Cornish Alps'

      Cornwall May 21, 2013 at 2:53 AM

      I would hate to drive round the china clay area, near St Austell, not know where the best vantage point was for photographs. I have looked at some spectacular photos in books but they don't say exactly where they were taken or if there are any access restrictions. Can anyone help?
      Also, is there more than one access road (gate) to the Eden Project or does everyone have to approach from the same side?

      Good accomodation in the Lake District

      Lake District National Park May 7, 2013 at 3:01 PM

      Hi everyone,

      I will be visiting the lake district with my family for about three nights at the start of June (We have a 3 year old and an 8 month old)

      Can anyone recommend some excellent accomodation near any of the lakes? We visited Bowness-on-Windermere briefly last year and were enchanted.

      Budget is a consideration & self catering is fine, but our main desires are cleanliness, scenery and hopefully the likes of a rustic log fire!

      Thanks for your help folks.

      Greg.

    • Meeting up at Heathrow after customs

      Heathrow May 21, 2013 at 3:26 AM

      I apologize for re-posting this question but I am a newbie and I don't know how to remove my first question.

      I don't think that I was very clear in that query. Please let me try again. I am landing on a BA flight at LHR Terminal 5 on Sunday mid morning. A friend, who is also flying BA, is expected to arrive at LHR Terminal 5 a couple of hours later.

      Is there a comfortable place (with luggage in tow) that I can watch the screens to see the status of her flight and wait for her to clear customs we can then meet up so we can then proceed to the Heathrow Express?

      Thanks everyone for your patience!

      Eurostar ticket advance purchase London Brussels

      London May 21, 2013 at 10:21 AM

      Other VT's have advised to purchase Eurostar tickets in advance for trips for example London Brussels changing to Amsterdam. How much time in advance is recommenced to get a good price? We are now looking at 3 months from now/May 26st. Also there are 4 seniors traveling together, if that makes any difference. In Brussels changing trains to Amsterdam, there is 15 minutes between trains, does that seem like enough?
      Thanks to all in advance, Chuck

      London to Marlow

      London May 14, 2013 at 3:49 AM

      I am planning on travelling from St:Paul's tube station to Marlow. The national rail is advising me to reach Paddington by tube, and continue the journey by train via Maidenhead. The trouble I am facing is that the train changes are rather closely placed (5 min!). Would it be safe then to buy a anytime day return ticket from PAD to Marlow (and use Oyster for the tube leg)? Does it make sense to book it in advance (which means I have collect it in the PAD station)? What about bus services?; Google maps are providing me a few suggestions, but appear to be a slower option. Comments greatly appreciated!
