Woke up late this morning so had to dash about a bit as we leave by 11am.
We are sad to leave this place as it is up there with the Gothic Temple and
Saddell as a favourite landmark house with the views and the peace and
tranquility.
We are going to Wolfeton Gate House near Dorchester for a few days too
and Carole, Peter {Andrew's parents} and Nick {a friend} will join us there
till Friday.
We have decided to go via Lydford Gorge as a lot of people have
written in the logbook about it. There is a 3-mile walk that takes us
all round the gorge and past all the waterfalls, which are stunning.
Well worth the walk, which is very steep, and extremely narrow and
frightening if you don�t like heights like me!
The Devil's Cauldron is amazing and has steep slippery very narrow
steps, but is worth the journey as it is spectacular when you reach it!
We had a late lunch there in the cafe, then drove to Dorchester and our second
holiday home, Wolfeton Gate House.
This
is a wonderful house too, large airy rooms and apparently the ghost of a
catholic monk called Cornelius who haunts Andrew and I's bathroom! We
all arrived within an hour of each other and having settled in, we went to find
dinner.
A lovely little restaurant in Dorchester at 6 North Row provided us
with lovely food and Old Thumper beer etc. We sat outside to eat as it's
a lovely evening.
