• Day 15 Luccombe to Washford

    June 3 in England ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    We packed up early today as rain was forecast at 7am and I didn’t want to be packing up a wet tent. We had coffee and fruit for breakfast and then set off. We did get a lot of rain showers today but interspersed with some lovely sunshine. We followed the Macmillan way most of today, starting off through forest until we arrived at Dunster, which is a lovely medieval village. The high street was very pretty, we stopped for a coffee as it was raining and we wanted to wait out the shower. Then we had a walk around the village before going to Dunster castle. Well worth a visit, we spent a couple of hours there, luckily today is a short mileage day (only about 14 miles). We then set off again on the Macmillan way to Washford. It started off as a fairly well defined path through forest and then started to go through farmland, we needed to take a few detours as fields had been planted so we had to go around the edges, but we got there in the end. We are now enjoying a pint at the White Horse Inn where we are staying tonight.
    PS funny bit was Karen making friends with the local hunting pack and then the horses They really took a liking to Karen. 👏
