Today is the last proper day of this short trip, we have broken the trip approx half way home here at the caravan and motorhome club site. Tomorrow we will visit friends at Ilminster for coffee before finishing our journey. On route we stopped twice for breaks and site seeing, firstly Totnes and then Sidmouth.
We were last here a few years ago with motorhoming buddies Alison and Peter on a break between Covid outbreaks.
I love the “ hippy vibe” of Totnes the shops and the way people dress would give it away even if you didn’t know. I think there’s a wonderful business opportunity for someone to open “ a greasy spoon cafe” here with no healthy food just white bread, bacon, sausage etc it would make a change from all the lentil based foods on offer😊
From Totnes we headed to Sidmouth , we have never visited there before even though we have been to all the other towns along this section of coast. We enjoyed a walk along the pebble beach even though it’s was wild and windy, time was short for our visit so we only had a quick walk around town, it was very pleasant and I’m sure we will return.
It was a short hop from there to the camp site it was something of a miserable trip in heavy rain. Every evening on this trip after we have settled down we have had heavy rain and strong winds which thankfully have died down by morning.
It’s been an enjoyable trip made easier by being out of season quieter roads and less busy resorts.
