Knowing how it gets in Devon & Cornwall anyway, and this year with restricted global travel I suspect it will become unbearably busy well into autumn.

Even last year, when we managed a week in a friend's cottage in Cornwall in mid October, when normally the village of Portscatho is deserted, last year it was heaving with visitors.


Dave I was in Felixstowe today collecting the MIL for lunch (she is in our bubble & comes ofr lunch every weekend). With the sun out & the temperatures up I expected the seafront to be very busy but it wasn't. On question time last week one scientist stated that there was no evidence that last years crowded beaches or hospitality helped the spread.
I think the majority are being sensible.
