Day 29 Knighton to Mellington Hall

Today started with a nice continental breakfast at the place we stayed last night. Then it was off on the hardest walk we’ve done since the South West Coast path. It started with a really steep climb. Made more difficult as it was a wet, misty start to the day, we the path was very slippery. But we made it to the top, to face just as steep a climb down, then up again, then down. However the weather did get better and we got lovely views, including really clear views of Offa’s Dyke, we were actually walking along it at one point. Tonight we are camping at Mellington Hall. This place is lovely, beautiful old hall that houses a restaurant and bar and it is really well laid out. And they have a brand new shower block which is really nice.
PS I am absolutely knackered. Tough day. Struggled for motivation from the first climb. Well deserved pint tonight. Who does LEJOG during a world cup? 🥲Read more
