Geocache Description:

Located close to the road with ample parking about 100yds along the lane from the cache. Please use the layby (Parking Waypoint) as although this is a quiet lane it is single track.

Cache is a green clip lock box containing log book/pencil, and plenty of room for swaps and goodies. There is a coin of the realm for FTF.

The cache is a quick cache and dash which can be driven to in a few minutes from the West bound carriageway of the A30 (take the Lewannick turn off). For access back to the A30 West bound, follow the signs to Plusha and Bodmin.

There are sometimes muggles parked up in the layby but you will be out of sight at the cache location which is accessible from the lane without having to go into in the fields.

In the Jonathan Gash novels, Lovejoy the lovable rogue always keeps a secret stash of items for emergency situations - some valuable antiques and some clever forgeries. Anything that can be sold, swapped or used in a scam to get some quick cash and get himself out of trouble.
We can't guarantee you will find any valuable antiques in this cache, but who knows!
Although several hundred miles from Lovejoy's home on the Essex/Suffolk border, this is his secret stash for when he is in Cornwall on holiday.
OR IS IT?

This is our first cache, hope you enjoy finding it and swapping items. We know this is not the most picturesque location but hope the cache works as a place to drop TBs and coins and boost your numbers as you travel the A30.

Congrats to Vee-dub girl for being FTF. We must have been psychic putting the VW Beetle model in the cache.
