       Susan Schofield, 65, told the Daily Mail she was fed up of dealing with complaints about the smell from posh visitors.

       Susan, who's farmed land in the area since 1973, added: "They don't seem to have any idea that this is the countryside.

       "I have had complaints when I put cows in my field because people don't like the smell or they expect to be able to walk across my land whenever they want."

       Margaret Behr, 64, says the climbing number of second-home owners have left her feeling lonely in the winter.

       Cornwall is the post popular destination in the UK for a second home, according to census data.

       Some 6,080 holiday homes are used by 14,230 people.

       Anthony Fuller, 93, complained the new square homes are "not appropriate for the area".

       Cate Blanchett bought her £2 million home in the area in 2021.

       Actor Jamie Dornan was spotted at a local petrol station just weeks later.

       And Stanley Tucci is said to have bought a home there with his wife Felicity Blunt.

       It comes after a picturesque town ruined by selfish second home owners forced one resident to live in a van.

       And residents living in another seaside town tell how they're fighting back against second-home owners.
