Woolacombe

Before leaving Devon to head further west into Cornwall, I spent a couple of hours at Woolacombe. We came here on a family holiday many years ago and it is still exactly as I remember it - a small holiday town, a big sandy beach and a big car park between the them.

Watermouth

Another day and another set of pictures of coastal cliffs and coves, sorry. This time there is an added bonus of a castle.

Only a 5 mile trek this time as I didnt start until after I had watched the British Grand Prix. Felt quite smug to realise I am getting better weather in Devon. Route link here >>> http://bit.ly/pfA54m

Ilfracombe

drove from Bath to Ilfracombe along the A39 all the way, through some pretty heavy rain showers. This took me through Glastonbury and Midsomer Norton. I was lucky to escape the latter alive.

Arrived just outside Ilfracombejust as the sun came out with enough time to go for a short walk to explore. See the route by clicking on this link ---> http://bit.ly/nizn6v
