I can't think of two nicer people to visit Cornwall with❣ God bless Kirsten and Joerg❣❣
Went on a few holidays in Mevagissey many years ago when husband used to go diving. The cornish pasties were wonderful
I am Cornish born and bred, and really happy that you enjoyed your time in our little slice of heaven 👍
I dream of Cornwall, But you are there, Enjoying the harbor, Eating fudge, Exploring narrow roads, Seeing colorful cottages. Holding hands, On a walk, To get Fish and Chips! What a place, You went, You took us there!
Loved your comment!
me too! @@marybazargani6929
The original Poldark series was made in 1975 with Robin Ellis and Angharrad Rees, in 1977 I dragged poor hubby to Cornwall, and we went to all of the filming locations and even stayed at the hotel where the cast had been based!!😊 in Lostwithiel. I still have all the books I collected at the time. Loved every minute 😂
Oh wow, did you meet any of the cast?
We stayed in Botallack several times where the house used as Nampara for that series is situated. Very fond memories.😊
Robin Ellis wrote two books about Poldark locations and about Cornwall which I have, many years later my sister and I went to a Poldark reunion lunch in London and met a lot of the cast including "Ross and Demelza " Robin Ellis and Angharrad Rees. They were lovely and they all signed my books which I had taken with me. Still have them today!! Great memories and have been to Cornwall many times since 😊
Bonjour à vous deux..j adore vos vidéos.. des endroits magnifiques comme vous en avez le secret...et des petits repas pris sur le pouce..vous êtes vraiment sympathique tous les deux..j ai adoré Poldark sur Netflix.. à bientôt...amitiés.
@@yvonnegillman5095 I wonder if those books are still in print? You were very lucky to meet Ross and Demelza!
What I love most is how Joerg loves Kirsten! He is so affectionate towards her and any man who likes ice cream cones is a man after my own heart. Really enjoy your visits to Cornwall..Aidan Turner..be still my heart!
Always, always, always look forward to your videos. They are tastefully done, top-notch, plus the time and effort you put into all your videos are hands down the best I've seen; not to mention the beautiful music playing in the background, as well! What a beautiful location! Thanks for sharing, Kirsten and Joerg!
Thank you very much!
Hi ! Your videos are really Nice!!!! Do You have Instagram? Congrats from Montevideo, Uruguay😊
My favourite German's visiting one of my most loved parts of the UK. What could be better!
We loved this video!! You warm our hearts with your enjoyment of all the unique features of Cornwall.. and it’s so sweet to see Joerg’s affection for you Kirsten ♥️♥️The fudge, fish and chips, the seagull, the boats, the interesting architecture.. all lovely! We could almost smell the sea air as well.. pretty music 🎶 too! I started harmonizing along! ☺️👏🏻🩵
Glad you enjoyed it Marcia! Cornwall is such a special place for us.
I live in the U.S. and have never been to Britain. I had plans to go a few years ago, but things didn't work out. So I've really been enjoying your videos, as i love the quaintness of the cottages and shops. Thank you for sharing your trips with us.
Hopefully you will make it over here one day, there's lots to visit.
LOVE!! LOVE!! LOVE!! Do, I see Doc Martin, running by?? Love, U both! Cheers!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!
Kristen and Joerg you bring so much joy to our lives. All of the places you visit are places I would love to go if I could. Beautifully done. God Bless♥From the USA
Dear Kirsten and Joerg, I have long wanted to visit Cornwall but not got around to it, so thank you both for bringing me with you. Cornwall is very beautiful.💖🇮🇪
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cornwall is absolutely breath taking! It was great to see those unique and beautiful fishing villages. We are so thankful for you two. Thanks so much!❤
Hi Kristen and Joerg, Had a lovely holiday in Cornwall last week, stayed in Portreath in a cute little house a stones throw away from the beach! We visited Polperro and had a delicious meal at The Three Pilchards would highly recommend eating there for anyone visiting Cornwall The Lizard is a must for anyone visiting. The scenery is stunning got a really good fish and chip shop there and really nice shops! Love all your videos!
Oh how lovely to hear! We LOVE the Lizard, it's where we spent our very first ever holiday in England. We shared the place again on our channel 2 years ago.
Ah, Fowey was gorgeous! And Cornwall itself, too! I’m a native of Rhode Island in the United States, and some parts of Cornwall reminded me a lot of Newport. We even have Newport fudge! (Which is SO delicious, and seeing the fudge in this video is making me crave it again! 🤤) All the food in the video looked incredible, too! Thank you for this video. 💜🙏🏻
Oh Fowey is so beautiful, could easily love there. Yum, Newport Fudge sounds delicious.
I’m sure the tasty-looking ones you both had must be just as delicious! The trouble for me in a fudge shop is that I’d want to buy one of everything! 😅 Thank you again! ❤️
Cornwall has always been my favourite part of England. I visited Tintagel via Wells ( in Somerset ) on a tour in 1987. It felt spiritual to me. In 2019, I flew from Lands End airport with Skybus to St. Mary’s Airport on the Isles of Scilly. I was booked at the lovely Karma St. Martin hotel which I arrived at by their boat shuttle. You’d love exploring and walking the entire of St. Martin. I saw puffins, ancient stone circles, amazing rock formations, lighthouses, beautiful beaches. The path is wonderful and there is a cute pub you can visit for eats or a drink. After five days there I flew to Newquay and drove to St. Ives, Penzance, Mousehole, the Merry Maidens rock circle, La Morna cove and then up to Plymouth. It’s a vacation I treasure. I hope you get there some day. You’d love it!
Just beautiful Ms Kirsten and Mr. Joerg. Thanks for taking us along. God's speed.
Thanks for sharing your trip to Cornwall. It’s always a joy to hear and see you two with your kind positive words. 🥰
I so enjoy your love for all things British. You are making your own home a lovely English style.
Thanks so much!
My grandmother was born in Charlestown, her father was a sea captain sailing from there, so was his father and uncles. They then moved to Fowey and lived in one of the first houses you filmed, where you were on the balcony, just along from there. Special place for me.
Oh that’s amazing!
Wednesday evening is Kirsten and Jörg time...with a nice cup of Cappuccino....
Thanks so much
Absolutely loved this video! I have loved Cornwall after discoverying the show Doc Martin and I try and catch any video touring anywhere in Cornwall. Each fishing village was so different and unique, the houses were truly amazing and I thought the narrow streets gave it so much character. I can't tell you how much joy your videos bring to me as my husband has dementia and is no longer able to travel and I can't leave him so just tagging along with you guys is so much fun. The way you videotape your trips is just excellent. Hugs from the USA!
Thanks so much! I‘m so terrible sorry to learn about your husband’s dementia. Sending so much love and hope the videos provide a little escape for you.x
'I'm not tempted, I'm going!!' Joerg loves his pasties😆
😂🙏😂🙏
Hello from Croatia Europa 👍💐
Hello, thanks so much for watching!
I need to comment again………I am so impressed every town was so clean.
I absolutely love the trim work around the doors/entrances to these beautiful homes! Thanks for taking me with you - the seaside and views of the mansions down onto the harbor were stunning!
Was watching the original All Creatures Great and Small series.On the dining table the service looked like the Asiatic Blue pattern.I know you loved the series Kirsten.I wondered if you'd noticed.Its on twice a day at the moment.🤗🤗🤗
I just started to rewatch on DVD only way to see full series Doc Martin.Been more then 7 years filmed in Cornwall it us a lovely place.Keep Rocking the good 😋yum stuff 👍 Beautiful people 🤗the🐇🖖 continue with you & your Travels zen connection with KZhead Family Yes it amazing where does Jorge but all those 😋yum treats 😉🌻🐦🍂🌳🍁🌞🎃💜🙏💚🕊️🗽🇺🇲🦅
Thanks for bringing us to Cornwall. A person from US will love to visit there someday
I'm back. This is wonderful. 😊😊❤🎉🎉
Thank you!
I actually love seeing all the treats and the food you guys are enjoying in the various places you go. It's all part of the culture of a place. Cornwall is on my bucket list. And, also, im very jealous of Jorg's ability to eat whatever he likes while staying so thin! Not fair, Jorg!😂
Oh thank you! Hahah, it can be deceiving, Jörg doesn't eat all day trust me - we filmed this over 3 days.
Some men are just blessed like that, everything they eat is turned to energy.. My late husband could “pack it in” and never gained an ounce. He used to say “We skinny people get really hungry” LOL
Hello,from the United States living in the state of Kansas.❤
Thank you. Just a great start for a few days off for me. Cute as buttons, ya'll are! 😊
Thank you so much Elizabeth!
Mittagspause mit Kirsten und Jörg. Liebe Grüße aus Chicago USA
Vielen Dank und liebe Grüße!
Hey Y'all! I cannot tell ya'll how much I enjoyed every step you both took on the trip to Cornwall. It's truely one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen! Just the most wonderful places a person could get lost in! The houses both big and small I loved them all and I wish I could visit this country at least once before I leave this world! May you both be blessed in all your travels. Much of GODS BEST IN ALL YOU DO! 🙏 📚 🎶
We are so happy you enjoyed it, thank you!
Oh, it is great to know where one of my favorite characters, Cormoran Strike, lived in his childhood ;-)
Oh I loved Cormoran Strike too!

@@user-dj1vh9mt3e et de la Suisse aussi ☺️ ensembles 🫶
Beautiful vlog. Nothing like fish and chips outside in the fresh air. Lovely seeing all the places we visit when home. Because of the wind, we always talk about "the wind chill factor" in the UK!😊
We are in the middle of renovation and as you know it is fun and at the same time stressful . Your notification came just in time for me to get my tea and sweets , relax and enjoy this beautiful video . Thank you so much Kirsten and Joerg. Mostly glad you two enjoyed it .
Oh yes I know - hope everything goes well.
Thank you so much! 🎉
Such a beautiful vlog .All the places you visited were where my husband and myself went as part of our honeymoon fifty four years ago.Cornwall continues as it has been.Lovely.Thank you fir sharing.😄🎉☀️
I love the quaint villages and I love to hear the seagulls. I can watch the water all day. Great video! Take care!❤
Those fish and chips were both huge. Another lovely place. Joerg is a nice husband. I've enjoyed another of your journeys today.
I adore Polperro. I have watched numerous walking tours on YT of this area and so love the rich history of this little port. Thank you for showcasing this beautiful and wonderful little gem.
That really was beautiful. It would be like living in a fairytale. All the houses overlooking the water were amazing. I would love to see inside if them all. Thanks for the fun trip! Take care you two.❤
Growing up in America and reading books like "Rebecca", by Daphne Du Maurier , this tour is such a treat for me! Than you💐💕
I just love the way Joerg loves his food ❤
You make everywhere look so wonderful in your video's. ❤
Thank you so much!
What a lovely satisfying trip you just took us on. As always the food, scenery and fellowship are perfect. Thank you for taking us along. Mary
So beautiful! Would love to visit Cornwall someday! Thank you for taking us with you!!
Cornwall is so lovely, and their fish n chips must be amazing!!! I love your dresses Kirsten. You look beautiful in them. You both are so adorable together. May God bless your marriage.
Alternative title: 🍦Joerg Eats the Largest Portions Cornwall has to Offer! 🍽 (and his enthusiasm makes the food even more delicious)
Oh my gosh. Now I’m craving fudge. Beautiful place. Cornwall. Living here in Maryland in the US, I love the water, too, and the sounds of the seagulls.
Postcard perfect indeed. The quaint villages, the beautiful harbors, the pretty shopd were so delightful to visit via the two of you. Thanks!
Schaue eure videos immer 2x,da ich keine sekunde davon verpassen möchte.Und mir ist erst jetzt das Haus mit den Muscheln aufgefallen. Wow,ist das schön! Danke noch mal für das tolle Video 🥰. Liebe Grüße 😘😘
Oh ja, tolles und sehr außergewöhnliches Haus!

Joerg: I’m not tempted, I’m going! 😂 He knows what he wants!
Oh doesn't Joerg look so happy with his ice cream 🍦. Looking forward to seeing this, although I may not be able to watch while its live. But I'm definitely always so happy to see your beautiful videos. A gorgeous couple you are. ❤😊
Aww that’s so kind, don’t you worry about not being able to watch live.x
@@KirstenJoerg 💖💖💖
I wish I had a way to post a pic. Even our Chiqui girl 🐕l ikes to watch Kirsten and Joerg. ❤
Another amazing video.The villages in Cornwall are now on my bucket list to visit! Also, I love how affectionate you two are with each other. It's wonderful to see that magic hasn't gone out of your marriage, and I'm sure it never will. 💕
Both you darlings present such beautiful vlogs. This one takes the cake. Bless you and all my love from this girl who loves UK 🇬🇧and Europe. Thankyou.❤
I enjoy your videos so much - especially the two of you together! Happy, joyful! What a delight! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
ANOTHER FABULOUS VIDEO!! Cornwall looks like a DREAM. It’s also the home of the little gal ( Molly Hocking❤️) that won the Voice several years ago now. I believe her mother owns a business there. What a glorious place and I ❤❤❤ Poldark too. He’s so…. Handsome🤗🤗❤❤
It's funny, I'm originally from Michigan and pasties are huge in Michigan. Very much enjoyed this lovely trip ❤
That’s so interesting to hear. Thanks ever so much for watching.
I like Doc Martin and Poldark. Enjoyed this so much.
A wonderful video❤️❤️ loved everything about it. And watching Joerg always enjoying his food is priceless 😀
I can’t thank you enough for all the wonderful videos you send to us. ❤
I liked sneaky kisses! lol I didn’t realize Cornwall was so beautiful and bright! Most movies are very dark. Thank you for taking us!
I really love the villages the homes are so beautiful. Jeorg's icecream looked so delicious. Your fish dinner looked yummy. Have a safe trip home.
I was in Cornwall a few weeks ago. Would have been a dream to bump into you two! Like the excitement you felt when you saw Mrs. Crocombe! We stayed at The Pig on the Beach. (We’ve stayed at a lot of Pigs, and I always think you’d love them). It’s a great hotel, but they also have a lovely spot for food, tea and drinks overlooking the sea. Can’t wait for the show to begin!
Oh it would have been lovely to bump into you! Yes, the Pig hotels looks lovely, I'm sure we would love it so much. Hope you had a great time.
Well then, I'll reach out to you when I"m traveling to the UK next@@KirstenJoerg ! By the way, The Pig is opening a location in 2025 (seems like it's FAR in the future, but sadly that's not!) at Groomsbridge in Kent. It's the stunning house used for filming as the Bennet family home, Longbourn, in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice ---my personal favorite!
@@user-rj7zz3yb5d Oh they are now converting stunning Groomsbridge into a Pig hotel - thanks so much for letting me know.
Thank you so much for this lovely trip to Cornwall ! I can't believe it's been 15 years since I visited there . I keep waiting for someone to do justice to Rosamund Pilcher's " The Shell Seekers " as a miniseries . There is a horribly miscast and written movie with Angela Lansbury as Penelope . I always envisioned Rachel Ward as the perfect Penelope . Now of course she would be the older version . The villages and towns are so pretty and once you've been to Cornwall you long to come back . You two are my favorite tour guides . 💕💕🇨🇦
Опять вижу вас! Очень рада!
The videos are a sweet treat for your viewers, that fudge looks great and I loved Poldark, the old series and the later production too.😊
Such a lovely area, you really make it hard for anyone looking to choose a quaint village to move to. I think Cornwell just may have my heart 🥰 Again, the music accompaniment, perfect. I know YT gives out awards, you should certainly get one for all the music you've had over the yrs.
Wow, thank you! Yes, Cornwall is lovely, it has my heart too!
Beautiful!! Spent my childhood holidays in all these places. Memories came flooding back.❤ Xxxxxxxxx
it is so nice to watch your video here in cologne,germany and to follow you through cornwall.i love england!🥰
DANKE!
I love your positive loving energy. Thank you ❤🎉😊 love from Iraq
How a lovely couple ❤❤❤ biz biz from Paris 🇫🇷 😊

Hello 😍💝🌹 Have a nice day
You too!
Love joining you on your adventures! Thank you for taking us along!! 🥰❤️
Thanks for taking us to such wonderful places!
Thank you for another lovely video guys; Cornwall is so gorgeous and it was lovely to see some villages that I didn't get the chance to visit when I lived in the UK; the only one I've been to is Polperro. I just love it when you show us UK villages, they are so beautiful. It was shocking to see how much a large fish and chips cost now! I remember buying that for around 2 pounds, tho of course that was many many years ago now .... Take care; love from Stella xxx
Oh thanks so much Stella! Yes, it’s pretty normal for Fish & Chips now, it was our dinner so was quite alright.
❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹@@KirstenJoerg
I’ve been dying to visit Cornwall since I read the first Poldark books as a teenager in the 70s. The author, Winston Graham, almost makes this beautiful location one of the characters in the books. It reminds me very much of the Northern California coast, where I live, but we don’t have the charming old stone buildings. Amy that we built in the 19th century, when European settlement if this coast began (after some Russian wooden forts and churches earlier), were soon knocked down by Mother Nature with her earthquakes. Among the first Europeans settlers were many New Englanders after coming West for the Gold Rush, who brought their architecture with them, the New England coastal style perseveres here. The storms off the ocean are just as wild here as in New England, but not snowy. I love the coastal climate, it never gets hot, but live a bit inland, where it does.
Reminds me of the fishing village on "Doc Martin's" TV series! Lol Beautiful trip for you two love birds! Tks for sharing!!!!
Oh Yes, Port Isaais lovely too, we visited before and loved it so so much!
I really enjoyed this video. It reminded me so much of my visit to Cornwall back in 1997. I'll never forget it.
Just beautiful as always luv u both from Columbus Ohio USA 🥰🙏💞
I love these fishing villages and can well imagine how interesting it would be to live there or holiday in a cute stone cottage on the hillside! ❤ heavenly! Thanks for sharing your time with us dear Kirsten and Joerg❤❤
Kirsten you look so cute in your darling outfit in front of the green Watts Trading building!
Oh thank you!
Love Cornwall we had holidays there for years. Lovely memories thank you for the video. Miss Cornish pasties. New Zealand
Fantastic as always! The Fudge!...The Fish and Chips! The cozy cottages and the sea, what more could you want!!
Squeeeeeeeeeee! You’re in Cornwall! Yay I get to visit with you (virtually). So excited 😊😊😊❤
