Greetings all.I bought my first Frontera,first 4x4 this week.( 95 2.0ltr Sport). So far Im enjoying driving it but would love to take it off road with some supervising from an experienced member.I have been told about Baldhu but never been there.
Are any of you going any time soon?.Are there any of you close to me ( Polruan)?.
Hope to meet some of you soon.

Hi there
I'm in Padstow, so not particularly close to you.
Albeano is in Truro and visits Baldhu more often than most. If you go there be prpared to get scratched/dents, some of its quite tight and there are bomb-holes/water holes you don't want to visit.
Jim and I usually go down there with the guys from Hilux Surf site, have a look in here

Plymouth offroad club are doing a day there. I went out with them a week ago to a very clay based off road site. It was abit too sticky and most were going nowhere. I winched a landy and trooper out of the gloop and a hydrauliced suzuki out of a pond. At the end of the day most of us were stuck at the bottom of the site un-able to get through a hole which was as deep as your wing mirror one side and so high the other that your door was trapped up against the bankside. I ended up going in and winching myself through and then pulling the next through, he would then do the same for the car behind etc. I have some new scrapes and dings 
I had to go buy a new pressure washer the next day as I had no chance of getting the clay off otherwise. Just your sort of place John
