Looking for confirmation please. We have the "Bosigran" North coast guide and the old compact guides for North and South. Is the "Climbers Club Climbing Guide Book: Cornwall - Chair Ladder & The Lizard" the best available for the South coast? We don't stray far from the Land's End Peninsula and don't do anything hard!

Thanks. I just wondered if there was anything new on the horizon.

"Climbers Club Climbing Guide Book: Cornwall - Chair Ladder & The Lizard" was published in 2017, so it's not wildly out-of-date yet.

You might consider venturing outside the Land's End peninsular to visit the Pen Olver cliffs on the Lizard, which is great for the easier grades.

We like to visit a new crag on each visit. We went to Pen Olver one year but one of our party mis read the tide times and we had to make a rapid exit. Two fishermen were tragically swept off nearby rocks the same day. We tried Trewevas this year and enjoyed it, but being well past our prime, we thought the grades typically "Cornish"! We love it down there though. Any other suggestions appreciated.
