Years ago we took the boys to Stratford-upon-Avon to see all that Shakespeare stuff. Part of the trip included a foray into the Cotswolds, where we were greeted by shrubbery that has its own personality.

Very nice pictures and some good humor to read! I'm also an Anglophile and have been there quite a few times(and would live there if I could!!). Levens Hall is a great place to go if you like topiaries.My husband, daughter and I went there on a past tour.

Saturday 9/21
Land at Heathrow, train to paddington, train to Exeter, train to barnstaple, walk to The Old Vicarage—where we are staying until Thursday.
After our tea we walk to the bus station to pick up bus schedules. Hop the 21 to Fremington, which is where we left off last time.
Sunday, 9/22 Morning
Ate a marvelous breakfast, then walked straight out of Barnstaple to pick up the path heading northwest.
Sunday, 9/22 Afternoon
We walk Braunton to Saunton, intending to catch bus at Saunton, except I read Saturday’s bus schedule instead of Sunday’s because it’s so easy to do that and we soon find out there is no Sunday bus service in Saunton.
Saturday, 9/22 Evening
Our main goal on Sunday every time we come to England is it to make it to a Sunday Roast Dinner. Usually we miss it. Today though we are lucky: we find a good place in Braunton and end the walk on a full-belly note. Total miles today: 11.5.
