TWW 2nd October 2018


A long way for the longest walk and the coolest lunch ever - ever.
Out to Duckpool on rather an atmospheric morning, the cooling breeze a great help on the ascents. Along the fantastic coast with the waves crashing to explore the coves. Past the super top secret GCHQ spy listening station with all its stuff. Somewhat rockily down to sit by the foam at Stanbury for a warming cuppa. Of course, up and up to the cliff edge with Parasols, Fox Moth caterpillars and Toadflax, right out to Higher Sharpnose. To find Hawker's Hut, allegedly the smallest NT property (although we easily got nine people in). Into Morwenstow to explore the wonderful church and round the corner to Rectory Tea Rooms. Where, no doubt, a very warm welcome awaited and welcomed we were. And back through the fields past the amazing Tonacombe Manor "a perfect example of a Tudor manor house". To dive down into the Coombe passing the Pp Ho (Ed. Pump House) somewhere and back to the cars.
A truly great day out.

You really do have to be there ...
