29th May - Visit to East Devon - Seaton and Sidmouth

The next morning we had a cooked breakfast including Pork U Pine 4 sausages and then packed up and set off to Sidmouth and our next stop.

We diverted to Seaton to see if it was worth taking the tram.  We parked up and decided we would take the tram if it was going to cost us up to £5 each.  The tram was in, so we quickly bought our tickets without checking how much it was going to cost and were quite shocked when we were asked for £17.50 for both of us.

However by the time we went up the line to Colyton and back we felt it was worth it.  Something you would probably only do once though.

The tram travelled through a nature reserve where you could see different types of birds. 

When we arrived at the destination of Colyton we took a stroll around the village and even found a CL that we have put on our list to visit another time.

We stopped for a cuppa at a tea shop where we watched the Llamas in the field nexdoor.

   



 After the tram ride we went back to the camper and we were going to drive to Sidmouth and then head to our next stop at The Shute, near Ottery St Mary.  However we decided to find our next stop first and then go into Sidmouth. It took us a while to find the CL, each time we passed it someone had the gate open so we could not see the sign for this site.  Eventually we found the site and then headed for Sidmouth.

We parked up in Sidmouth and walked into town along the promenade.  Sidmouth was much nicer than Seaton and well worth the visit.

We stopped for an ice cream topped with loads of clotted cream

We walked back to the van and returned to Shute Farm for the evening.

Back at Shute Farm after cooking dinner we relaxed listening to music and reading.
