      Bolberry

      August 21, 2020 in England ⋅ 🌧 18 °C

      We spent five nights at the Karrageen site at Bolberry, west of Salcombe.The last couple of miles to the site were via very tight Devon C roads and we were anxious not to meet any large vehicles coming in the other direction - quite nerve racking. We came here to meet up with Kirsty and Matt together with Matts immediate family who had rented a property on Bolberry Down.
      We completed a couple of walks whilst we were there - on Saturday we wandered into Malborough to pick up the Saturday paper then crossed fields to Hope Cove where we enjoyed our picnic. There was great activity on the beach and in the bay. We then returned to the site via the South West coastal path, the views from the Down were impressive.

      Bolberry

      August 22, 2020 in England ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

      On Sunday we walked across the headland into Salcombe which was quite busy but not over crowded. We then followed the SWCP back around the Bolt Head headland, the coastline was very spectacular. We completed over 12 miles in all and stopped off at "The Station" on Bolberry Down to enjoy an evening with the Quicks. A great bbq was provided and the wine and beer flowed. A most enjoyable day.
      On Monday we returned to The Station in the afternoon where we provided the bbq. A little less wine and beer was consumed, possibly due to the celebrations the day before.
      On Tuesday Kirsty joined us for a walk and we repeated the Hope Cove walk. Storm Francis was blowing hard and it was quite difficult at times to keep straight on the high ground as the gusts were ferocious.
      We thoroughly enjoyed our few days shared with Matt's family and look forward many more joint experiences in the years ahead.
