Farewell Cornwall.

59.6 Miles. Now at the Twitchen Farm CL near Ilfracombe.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our time in Cornwall but it was time once again to move on. Just an hour and a half to our next campsite just outside Ilfracombe. Tomorrow being a public holiday due to the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton we are hoping that the buses will be running probably to a Sunday timetable and we can visit Ilfracombe.

Now that's a lot of thatching. The Hoops Inn on the A361 near Bideford.

Ornate bus shelter on the A361 at Fairy Cross near Bideford.

Todays trip didn’t have much of any interest except the satellite receiving station on the coast near Bude. About a dozen huge satellite dishes sitting up on the horizon which you cannot help but see for miles around.

Arriving at the camp we found we were the only campers and the owner had just finished cutting the grass. He was using a ride on mower which was fitted with a miniature silage chute and high sided trailer to catch the grass and take it away. Nifty little contraption.So we won’t be traipsing grass cuttings into the Motorhome over the next 2 days.
