A Week Away in Devon...

Hello everyone,

 I hope you are all having a wonderful start to the Autumn months, although it has been about 25 degrees recently. Myself and Sam and his family were lucky enough to make it away to Devon a couple of weeks ago and I wanted to share with you some of the things we got up to and the photos we took. We had such a wonderful time and it was so lovely to go away and just relax and enjoy each others company.

We stayed in a wonderful place called Pickwell Manor, which is basically a Manor House converted into multiple apartments that are self catered. It was unlike anything I have stayed in before because from the outside it looks like a hotel, but inside is all divided up into lots of separate apartments which I thought was such a fab idea. We stayed in a lovely apartment room that had a kitchen and luckily enough we had two outdoor baths, which I must say were just amazing, especially at night. it was like having a hot tub on the terrace. It was just lovely.

We stayed for a week around 5 days and spent the first night of our holiday in Exeter which was also lovely and turns out Exeter is now one of my new favourite places. We had some lovely cocktails and food on that first evening which were some of the best cocktails I have ever had. 

We went on some little days out to some Devonshire villages, including Ilfracrombe which was lovely and we had one of the best ice creams we have ever had here. We also had a classic fish and chips and took a walk around the town. We also took a trip to Croyde and walked down the beach which was also so lovely to explore a new place. We also went to woolacombe which was probably my favourite beach, and I am almost certain this beach won an award for the most cleanest beach in Britain. We hired surf boards and the lovely man in the surf hire beach shop right on the entrance of the beach very kindly gave us a free surfboard for me to learn on which just made my day to be honest. We had such a lovely day spent on woolacome beach and it was honestly the most perfect day!

So here are some of the snaps we took on the holiday. I also did make a Devon vlog if you would prefer to watch our adventures, you can watch the video HERE 

I honestly had the most wonderful time away and it was just so lovely and so needed!! I love having some time to unwind and relax with my second family
