It also makes Land End for the trip as Lands End it's actual self is a bit of a let down.
Cool, I'll add that to the list, I've been to lands end and know there is bugger all there but didn't know there was much around there, sounds good to me

Noted, will ammend the route, thanks for that if I get the opportunity to do this with the advice from people on best roads it would be pretty epic (considering its contained within the UK)

Thanks for that, I knew there was some comparison, just couldn't think of it plus makes for some nice pics

Cheddar Gorge is fairly impressive, and if you have time stop off at Glastonbury..............if you've never been it's a real experience

I would go this way from Glastonbury to Lands End..............included a side trip to Tintagel.................well worth a visit....................and Boscastle.
