Daphne du Maurier Guided Walks
Much of the area around Fowey has strong associations with Daphne
du Maurier and her writing. Opportunities to explore this further
are offered by Blue Badge Guide Lynn Goold. Lynn specialises
in leading walks and giving illustrated talks about Daphne du
Mauriers Cornwall, in particular her links with the area and
the locations which appear in her novels.
Kenneth Grahame author of Wind in The Willows stayed in Fowey
and was inspired by the area. Guided boat trips based on the
origins of Wind in The Willows are available during the summer
season but are dependant on the tide.
If you are interested in Daphne du Maurier or Kenneth Grahame
and would like to find out more by exploring the countryside
that inspired them then please email Lynn for more information and a scale of charges. Walks,
trips and talks can be tailored to your requirements and are
available for both small groups and larger touring parties.
Illustrated talks are ideal for organisations and events.
