Churston and Broadsands

Another three-miler, this one from the English Riveria website. We were picking up (yet another) computer from an eBayer in Paignton so travelled down in the morning to fit a walk into the day.

Weather: glorious spring sunshine

We started and ended the walk at Broadsands beach. The weather was fantastic - blue skies and bright sunshine. The route took us up through farmland then down along the coves on the coastal path. Clear water and spring colours.

Trellech Beacon

This was a route from 12 Easy Walks by the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean Tourism Association.

Weather: cold, overcast.

A short route but one that included spruce forest, heathland, a waterfall, wild ponies and Bertrand Russell's childhood home. What more could you want?
