Frenchman's Creek is a languid, narrow creek on the Helford River, used by Daphne Du Maurier as a setting for her novel of the same name, a story of illicit love between a married English heroine and a swashbuckling French pirate who operated from this creek. It is easy to imagine buccaneers carrying their booty from boats along these shady, quiet paths.
