St. Michael’s Mount Part 3
We’re nearing the end of our journey around St. Michael’s Mount. Here are my final photos! I uploaded them full size again because I can’t be bothered fiddling about :-).
A bit more impressive than my mantelpiece.
Back outside, but still up on the Mount.
A view down to the gardens, which unfortunately were closed on the day I visited. It looks like they’re doing some work down there.
A lovely view out across to Marazion.
The little ferry boats are still running but it looks like the tide has gone out and the causeway is open!
A final look out across the bay. I wouldn’t want to brave those cannons if I were invading.
Yep, the causeway is open. I get to walk back.
View from the causeway.
A final look back. Goodbye, St. Michael’s Mount!
I hope you enjoyed my little 3 part tour around St. Michael’s Mount!
Lovely way to end the tour. Now you need to give us a travelogue for another beautiful place in Cornwall 🙂

Yes, Yes, Yes, Thank You for sharing. I had a marvelous time.
In photo three there is a small cottage with a grass roof on the beach. When you become all powerful from the last post, may I have that cottage please?
Seriously very nice sharing.

Looks so much like Mt. St. Michael … but that’s French … or are they the same thing?

I think the French one was the “original” – according to Wiki the Priory of Mt St Michel was granted the island St Michael’s Mount is built on by soon-to-be William of Normandy, the French dude who invaded England in 1066, in return for their support.

I think I’d like to buy that place, just for the views! The history of the island sounds really interesting, too. Thank you for the lovely tour. 🙂

I loved that tour. ❤
I particularly liked the detail on top of the mantlepiece and wonder if it was plasterwork?
