We took advantage of the "take three days off work and get an eleven day break" starting at Easter. Went to Devon & Cornwall on a mini-tour not staying more than two nights at any one location. Ended up an 800 mile round trip in wall to wall sunshine and no rain what so ever First stop was Watchet in North Devon, followed by Minehead, Combe Martin and Ilfracombe. The picture below is at Combe Martin We then went on to Woolacombe, Bude, Widemouth Bay, Boscastle, Padstow and Newquay. On to Perenporth as pictured below Next came St Ives as shown below - a great campsite The return leg had less stops, but the great weather continued as we first went to Falmouth, Newquay again, then on to Brean Sands as our final stop before home. Only saw about a dozen other campers the whole trip - mostly older Bays, a couple of Splits but one yellow watercooled Brazi Bay parked in a side road as we drove past. If you get the time we would recommend you consider undertaking a similar trip - it was FAB

Great photo's. Seeing Perenporth makes me want to go back down to Cornwall, it's been far too long.

Looking to undertake a similar trip this year. Only a few more weeks of college then it's going to be time to hit the road. Heading West till I go any further.
and racing my 1970 VW Beetle.
