A Day On Exmoor

Our customary day out to Lynton and Lynmouth via Porlock Hill. We were blessed with lovely sunshine and fluffy clouds and had a stunning clear view across The Bristol Channel  and along the Somerset/Devon Coastline.

We used the funicular railway to get up to Lynton. The Cliff Railway opened in 1890 and is the highest and the steepest totally water powered railway in the world and is a must for and visitor. Before boarding we went in the Pavilion Cafe for a coffee which was very nice, the man serving on was very friendly to say the least!

On our way back to base we came across a herd of Exmoor ponies and got some lovely pics of them. In the evening we drove up the Moor Road above Minehead and experience an incredible sunset from the top of Bossington Hill.

What a way to end our holiday!

 WE had a mixed week of weather but on the whole we managed to stay dry. The only wet day was our second day when Sal stayed in the cottage ...
