A recent Coast Path Connectors walker summed it up perfectly: The coastal environment of the South West Coast Path is a constant source of inspiration and creativity for artists, and we are delighted to continue our feature series ‘Inspired by the Coast’, and introduce sculptor, @taylordonj. What a blooming beautiful time of year for walking the South West Coast Path. Moments captured on the Coast Path in Cornwall. Blue skies, a seal feeding in the shallows of the bay, and wildflowers adding colour to the landscape. We love spring on the trail! 🌼🌸🌱🦭 🌊🚶‍♀️ Celebrate National Walking Month with a little inspiration from the @classic_cottages team! May is National Walking Month and what better way to kick things off than with a long weekend on the South West Coast Path?
