We parked the car at Devils Point and took the South West Coast Path through the Royal William Yard to Admirals Hard where we caught the ferry to Cremyll. Although there has been rain lately the path was not too muddy. It was not too hard a walk until we got to the steps. Usually we go up one flight of steps then turn back to Cremyll, but this time we had to continue to the top and it was a hard slog. However, once we had conquered them it was easy walking all the way.
Twice on the way we saw deer but they ran away before I could photograph them. There were still some leaves on the trees, but not many and not much autumn colour. The views out to the Sound, however, were beautiful.

The walk is about 4 miles and we were surprised how quickly we saw the villages of Kingsand and Cawsand. At this point we stopped for lunch on a bench looking out to sea with the sun shining on us. It was really warm for the last day of November.

Walking through the narrow streets of Kingsand we were charmed by the quaint old cottages. We noted that the car park in this village was £1 for 6 hours. I am sure this is a winter rate, but worth remembering if we want to come in this direction by car.

Cawsand was in shadow and a little chilly so we decided not to linger but catch the next bus back to Cremyll. Fortunately we only had a couple of minutes to wait, The bus ride itself was very pretty with views over woods and fields to Millbrook and across to Plymouth. The tamar bridges stood out in the sun. The bus links with the ferry so we were soon back home.
