Continuing on ...

A big thank you to Donna for suggesting we swing by Lynmouth whilst in Devon.  It meant a bit of a detour along the northern coastline, mainly along roads like the B3116, which sound impressive, important and main, but in reality are skinny hedge-lined little lanes where (unless you’re a complete and utter maniac) top speeds range from the low to mid 30’s.  All of this means 90 miles can take an awfully long time!

But none of that mattered because the scenery along the way was fabulous.  Highlights included a loo stop at Dunster castle with of course, a “quick” 2 hour squizzie.

And a trip through the ruggedly beautiful and very windy Exmoor National Park
WINDY!!
 Where we came across these beauties…..

And at the end of part 1 of our day's journey was Lyndmouth – which was just spectacular and had me clicking left, right and centre!

After more driving and a long, long day we reached The Mill House, only to find, much to the kids delight, we were being spied upon by one Miss Molly, the border collie!  And if you think that breakfast looks good – it was! Donna, the picture of the hydrangeas is for you J.
