There is however genuine frustration when it comes to the influx of summer visitors
Well I guess the locals can't have it both ways, that influx is probably the main source of income for many of them!

For me, it all comes down to lack of good transport infrastructure:
- sections of the busiest parts of the A30 in Cornwall that are still single-carriageway
- trains capable of 125mph that can't do more than 75mph west of Plymouth,
- an airport that can accept all current types of pax aircraft (ok, maybe not an A380), but is hampered by extreme seasonality and being run by a Council.
