Port Isaac, Cornwall by rodsfotos
The little village of Port Isaac on the rugged North Cornish coast is steeped in a history of fishing and smuggling, but also bordered by lush farmland as you may see in this composition.
The visitor is advised to park their cars at the top of the village and walk down to the harbour area, the narrow streets are not really car friendly but are lined with an assortment of delightful old fishermen’s cottages.
A more recent claim to fame for the village is that the popular TV Series DOC MARTIN starring Martin Clunes was filmed in and around the village, many who view it like myself, do so to enjoy the beautiful Cornish scenery and relaxed lifestyle.

Fantastic! Love Port Isaac in Cornwall. Never saw Doc Martin though, but have heard it was quite a good series. Lovely Candid street view Rod. Regards, Don. P.S. An instant FAV!
Hi Don, thanks so much my friend, you will have to catch up with the series, often repeated on one of the SKY channels, I’m not a big TV viewer but found the series wonderful,
Regards, Rod.

We too always enjoy visiting Port Isaac Malcolm, I am always fascinated at the use of the harbour as a car park at low tide though, many thanks,
Regards, Rod.

Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear that you have the flu. I though this image looked familiar! Well, take good care of yourself and get better soon! That’s an order!
Thanks Barbara, I had a bad bout a month before Christmas and it left me with blocked sinuses and unable to breath through my nose, strangely this seems to have cleared up after this last bout.(Fingers Crossed)

A beautiful advert for Port Isaac! The countryside looks stunning :)
Thank-you very much Felicity, like so many of these old Cornish villages, Port Isaac never seems to change over the years and I’m sure that is the attraction for so many who visit it,
Regards, Rod.

This looks a lovely place Rod, I am not familiar with Cornwall or Devon,
Hello Ann, it is on the North coast of Cornwall a little over twenty miles from the border with Devon, if you saw any of the TV series Doc Martin, you will have seen most of the village, it was all filmed in and around the village, thanks so much,
Regards, Rod.
