Here we are in Dulverton...a lovely little village on the edge of Exmoor.
It's Sunday and it's pretty peaceful; the sun is shining and
as we stroll around, we admire the beauty of the surroundings.
I like this village very much... and I love this little abode...
And Mr S points out this sign on the wall...we laugh.
What humour!
I think I could've stayed all day in Dulverton,
especially as I discovered an old bookshop with some
of my favourite 'Miss Read' books in the window (along with
the Agatha Christie paperbacks.)
I purchase, 'Friends at Thrush Green'...and make my exit.
I could've bought the lot as they are the hardback copies with those delightful
illustrations by John S. Goodall!
I adore these books and have read them so many times!
With a smile on my face, on I go, to...
Dunster!
In contrast, Dunster is busy; exceedingly busy!
It's a pretty little place but we don't do crowds of people terribly well!
Dunster and lunch both done...on we go!
Porlock!
We don't stop long in Porlock and we soon find ourselves
dealing with Porlock Hill!
A piece of cake!!
Thankfully I am not driving! ;-)
But just look at this view from the top!
And there's Wales, in the distance.
Next we head for Lynton and Lynmouth.
It's heaving with people when we get there and so we decide to drive on!
(Hence no photos!)
We've enjoyed our Sunday trip and I look forward to
bedtime reading and, maybe, returning to that bookshop, one day.
