• Day 11 Hartland to Bideford

    May 30 in England ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Today we woke up to a rather soggy morning. It hadn’t rained but it had been cold during the night so there was a very heavy dew. I was lovely and warm inside my sleeping bag with my thermals on so didn’t realise how cold it had been until I got up in the morning. Our walk today started through fields and quiet lanes again, then we got back on to the SWCP. We passed through Clovelly which was definitely not to be missed, even though the steep cobbled streets were challenging to walk. It is a beautiful place and half way back up the hill we stopped off for a coffee and a chat with some of the locals. Then we were off again along the path. We then stopped at Bucks Mill for lunch, we found a nice bench overlooking the beach and stayed there for a while. Then we walked through some little country lanes to our camp for tonight. It is a very nice place, very quiet.
    PS John says: That’s the last of the cliff walking for a while. Glad to see the back of it. Now we have a few days of rain and Exmoor to look forward to. 😂👍
