The Real Lowenna
I'm in the final stages of publishing the fifth book in the Lowenna series , Mermaid's Bane, and many people have asked where the Cornish village of Lowenna is located. Although the village is fictitious, memories of several Cornish villages were combined in the descriptions. Perranporth, Cornwall Aunt Grace's cottage, where Gia and David live, is on the Perranporth cliffs. Down the hill and toward the car park I have placed Lowenna Antiques. For other descriptions, such as the harbor, I used Trevaunance Cove near St. Agnes which is pictured on the blog banner and covers of High Tide and Mermaid's Bane. The King William pub I modeled on The Railway Inn, St. Agnes. By the way, if you are visiting Cornwall I highly recommend accommodations at the Driftwood Spars which is by the cove.
