    Anyone done it?

    Although three of us sharing the driving on Thursday morning not really looking forward t it

    How long should it take from Horden by the sea, setting off at 6 in the morning. Hoping to get there by 3-4pm hopefully with a couple of stops

    I've driven to Plymouth a few times, it takes about 6 and a half hours.

    Newquay's a bit further and on the north coast, 7 and a bit hours I would reckon.

    It's a dead easy drive, a long way but Motorway dual and carriageway most of the way. I'm not going to say how fast I got back from there in a peugeot 405 a lot of years ago

    If you're leaving at 6 you should be ok. Good time of year to go too, before the Summer madness and there should be lots of totty that are in town to work through the Summer. Give my love to the Sailors Arms, Central Inn and Newquay Arms amongst others.
