Beach ranger Andy Stewart and St Minver Lowlands Parish Council clerk Marnie Court are behind the cones which have been deployed to stop the rogue motorists .

A 6ft 4ins former cop and a parish clerk have been revealed as the team policing Polzeath's parking and coastline as they crack down on nuisance tourists and teenagers.

But Mr Stewart, 54, explains the situation has been caused by a 'parking anomaly' due to rain stopping the council from putting in double yellow lines after the single yellow lines were removed. He said the situation of no yellow lines caused people to 'totally understandably' take part in chaotic parking free-for-all.'We are kind of lucky here since we have the beach ranger service we are able to challenge it. I am sure there are a lot of towns and villages around the country that would just have to put up with it', he told MailOnline.

He said: 'People often look to blame someone, if you want to blame someone for this situation perhaps it should be mother nature due to the rain.'

The village in this affluent part of Cornwall has also been a favourite with the likes of David Cameron, who enjoys trips there with his family and has been seen bodyboarding at the beach. The former PM, who left Downing Street in 2016, owns a £2million holiday home in the village of Trebetherick, less than a mile from the beach.
