Thanks to our good friends we were able to enjoy the beautiful weather over the last few days exploring the Porlock area while staying in their lovely static caravan.
Porlock Holiday Camp is a small, family run site in a beautiful setting overlooking the sea and the hills, close to Porlock centre.
On our first full day we drove along the North Devon coast road, visiting some of the many beaches.
The next day we went on the Lynton and Barnstaple narrow gauge railway. It is a very short return trip from Woody Bay but there are big plans to extend the line.
From there we drove to Lynton and took the water powered funicular cliff railway down into Lynmouth.
On the Sunday we drove across Exmoor to Exford for a lovely Sunday roast at The White Horse.
In the afternoon we visited Greencombe Gardens, home to the largest holly tree in England, situated on the hillside overlooking Porlock.
We had a great time and look forward to visiting the area again. It was lovely be on holiday again, enjoying the normal pleasures we used to take for granted.
Thank you, Jan and Mike.
Off to Norfolk next!
