We ended up spending our last 5 nights at 1770.  Weather was perfect - around 30C.  Sea was warm and great for swimming.  Lovely walks.  Agnes Waters which is a 5mins drive away has a small supermarket, cafes, take-aways and some shops, tavern etc.

The caravan park was busy with families settling in for Christmas.  Lots of kids but all well-behaved and having great fun.  (They have broken up from school for the 6 week summer holidays).  Boats, campers, tents etc everywhere.  Even Santa turned up every afternoon in a motor bike and sidecar with lots of lollies (that's sweets in Pommy) for the kids.  He rang a bell as he drove in & the kids swarmed like ants to surround him.

Walking up to Bustard Head
 
Bustard Head is a headland overlooking 1770 and the surrounding area.   You can walk up to the top.  It has magnificent views.

Jacqui and Steve caught up with us for the last day that we were there.  We all enjoyed a swim and a walk up to Bustard Head.
