Cornwall coast -- Inspector Lynley
 
Just watched an Inspector Lynley show filmed on the Cornwall coast. Can anyone familiar with the area tell me what stretch of the coast?
I've seen St. Ives to Lands End and areas around St. Mawes to Fowey, but didn't recognize this.

The PBS series Inspector Lynley is filmed on location at Batchwood Hall , set on the edge of the historic city of St. Albans and just a few minutes away from the A1,M1 and M25. The Hall, built in 1874 by Lord Grimthorpe, who also restored the Cathedral and Abbey of St. Albans is set in 33 acres of lavish woodland and country golf course.

This is not, however, Cornwall, or anywhere near it.

Thanks Scarlett. Hope Portland is having a pretty fall.

Carlux, in last night's show they showed coastal scenes. Obviously the M25 doesn't have beach frontage, so maybe they were somewhere in Cornwall. ??

That's what I meant - the program is not usually filmed in Cornwall, and any coastal scenes would not be near St Albans or the M25.

So not much help for someone trying to track down Cornwall locations.
