We drive past Stonehenge. The entrance fee was just too expensive for us, for not even getting to the famous stones. Besides, the weather didn't cooperate at all.

Stand on the legendary Glastonbury Tor, the former Avalon ;-)

This campsite is right at the foot of Glastonbury Gate.
We stroll through the tranquil town of Minehead and visit the station with its historic railways. And there is a "birthday latte macchiato" ;-)
We stay two days because we like it at the campsite and we want to visit Dunster Castle.

A really great castle with beautiful gardens around it.

We get up early in the morning and drive through Exmoor National Park.
The drive through the national park with its small narrow streets, on which the pheasants feel like the kings of the country road, was one of our most beautiful experiences on this trip.
And finally we see them, the wild Exmoor ponies! An unforgettable moment!

We reach our next station. After we have quickly settled in at the campsite, we go into town by scooter. We enjoy the hustle and bustle of the small town and take a long walk on the beach.

On our onward journey we make a stop in Tintagel. We didn't want to do the way to the ruin, so we only took a stroll through the village.

We reach Padstow, drive to the campsite and get the scooter off the stage. Off we go to Padstow and we stroll through the town. With coffee and scones we enjoy the nice weather at the harbor. This makes it too late to visit Prideaux Place, made famous by many Rosamunde Pilcher films. Therefore we only made a small tour around the magnificent mansion.

We are on the road again and, as so often, we see super great spots where we can stop and not get enough of the wild landscape. So here in Carnewas.

Mit Abstand der beste Campingplatz auf dieser Reise mit supernetten jungen Betreibern. Wir machen einen ausgiebigen Strandspaziergang und lassen den Abend gemütlich ausklingen.

We take the bus to Newquay because it looks like rain (which has not been confirmed) and we don't want to take the scooter. In between we get a cafe to go and look around the place. We discover a house that stands on a rock. How do you get your weekly shopping there? :-)

Actually we wanted to go to St. Ives today. Unfortunately, at the Park and Ride, you can only pay the parking fees with coins - which of course we didn't have. And far and wide there was nobody to see who could change. So it was time to continue with a stop at a place where we could see St. Michael's Mount.

We reach today's stop at Trevedra Farm. We decide to stay here two nights because we want to go to Land's End tomorrow. We quickly get the scooter down and head to Penzance.

We decide to take the ferry a day earlier because I long for the grandchildren ;-). So we make our way towards Dover. Unfortunately, we completely miscalculated the distance, arrive in Dover late at night and spend the night in a public truck park. The next morning we found out at the terminal that a rebooking would cost an additional 200 euros :-(. The nice lady at the terminal gave us the tip to drive one more day to Canterbury and take the originally booked ferry the next day. done.

In Canterbury übernachten wir auf dem Stellplatz für 3 Pfund inkl. Busticket nach Canterbury hin und zurück. Übrigens war dies der einzige Stellplatz während unserer Reise. England scheint damit mäßig ausgestattet zu sein.
