My passion for Cornwall runs deep! I am of the Gilbert family from Gunwalloe. Living & growing up at Fishing Cove, Gunwallowe was a magical time for my brothers, cousins and me. Watching the fishing boats launched on summer evenings and having a free run of the beaches & cliff tops was part of our care free existance. I can remember snooping around the village smelling out pasty-day at different relatives houses. I could tell the difference between each of my aunt’s and my mother’s and grandmother’s pasty, even though all used the same ingredients. I now live at The Lizard where my pasty shop is situated. Here we are surrounded by stunning views of the sea which can be calm like a mirror reflecting a clear blue sky or raging, grey green with an Atlantic storm. Both a joy to behold. For recreation and a bit of fitness I row, a couple of times a week, on the Helford River with a Helford River Gig Club crew. I do feel very fortunate to live in this lovely place.
