Hmmm, wasn't this type of pricing tried in Salcombe a few years back. They still haven't recovered the visitor numbers they had before the price hike. It's a shame, we love Fowey but you aren't getting a right lot for £25, and its still £4 a pint when you go ashore!!!!

yep absolutely right on all points Rob. We loved Mixtow but not at those prices.
