The Dying of the Light

The view from The View

On Saturday, 16 April 2011, I posted some shots of the interior of my new favourite seafood restaurant, The View, which is perched high on the cliffs overlooking Whitsand Bay. On the day we lunched there the weather was very dull and misty, so I didn't show the view. However, yesterday was beautifully sunny, so I went back and here is why it is justly called The View. Here are all 180 degrees of it.

The view to the left - towards Rame Head

The view straight down the cliff to the beach

The view to the right - along the coast towards Downderry and Seaton.

A room with a view

The Western shore of Plymouth Sound is formed by the Rame Peninsula. The other side of which faces out on the English Channel, and its cliffs look down on the beaches of Whitsand Bay. This beautiful area is very popular with the people of Plymouth because it is close and easy to get to.

Yesterday we had an excellent lunch at the "The View", a relaxed and friendly restaurant specialising in fish and seafood, which is perched on the clifftop with a magnificent, 180 degree view, over Whitsand Bay.

The weather was rather dull and overcast so I couldn't do justice to the view but I'll put that right when the sun comes again.
