good to meet you dave hope you had a great time

maybe next time you can invite all of us to Devon Laughing

Dave Rowland · Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 12:15 pm Post subject:

well i think a lot of you would like Devon if you haven't been here before... the problem for most is the distance as flying with a dog could be just too much and driving takes hours and hours...
it could be arranged but Charlene have to help me as she's the designated party arranger.

My place is just two small to do anything with, so thats out... tbh the town is too small haha..

There is a camp site i do know but i prefer the camp site to be a bit more in the middle of the moor, hmm.. have to think

Here is some things to look at
http://www.exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk/park-life-2008.pdf

http://www.exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk and the pics across the top

http://www.activeexmoor.com/

http://www.visit-exmoor.co.uk/site/villages-and-towns/south-molton-p211433
My town with a crap photo, don't get too excited about a choclate factory haha

If you really do want to come down then a lot of you need to take a week off work and then perhaps tour England until you get down to Exmoor, bring you tents etc etc. I would go tbh, need to see more then scummy South Molton, some of you would like Dulverton or up on the moor around Landacre Bridge, plenty of tracks to go and it all can connect up to a coastal walk right around the areas. Little bit further up is Butlins hehe... perhaps thats what we need to do, go to Butlins haha

Here is the dog walking leaflet
http://www.exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk/print/enpa_dog_walkers_welcome.pdf
and yes plenty of horses for debs and charlene to steal, plenty of riding places etc

So if you all flew cheap? is it possible to freight up all the dogs?

When I was a child my family went on lots of holidays in Devon and Cornwall Smile

Really love it down there....
In 2004 we decided to take our then 3 year old daughter, camping to ''SUNNY'' Cornwall...
We drove all the way down overnight... we booked 2 weeks in 2 different campsites...
Well we hoped for nice sunny, dry camping weather.... just as well we packed our wellies!!!!
Remember Boscastles Shocked

that was one of our weeks!!!
Look on the bright side... we did get 2 dry days in the fortnight Smile

and loads of excitment Exclamation

yes i remember boscastle, so you was caught in that.... amazing

the place is thriving at the moment but there is too many tourists they complain about now.

long drive that... hence why i take the plane for 1 hour hehe, its much cheaper

Luckily we were down the road in Padstow that day....loads of rain there too... Shocked

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=SxweiRNlHbo
We did the drive down in about 9 hours.. best over night when the roads are quiet....
and we took it in turns to drive.
My brother stayed in Dorset for 11 years so I was use to the long drives... Smile

Haven't been camping in your part of the country since the floods... stick to SUNNY Scotland now Exclamation

I did a walking holiday with a lady from Boscastle the year after the floods. her name was Pat, she was a great character. the floods sounded and looked terrible.
