Knights Farm Loop

November 15, 2020November 19, 2020 / devondaze / Leave a comment

This walk is a really decent circular route with fantastic views in every direction. It's probably around 6km but there are options for making it longer. Whilst the paths the whole way round would be OK for a big-tyred buggy, there are stiles and gates that would make this hard work. Start at the fabulous … Continue reading Knights Farm Loop

Snowdrops around Exeter

February 13, 2019 / devondaze / Leave a comment

On all of my recent walks lately, I've been thrilled to see little signs of spring. There is so much more wildlife around, the bird song is noticeably more varied and cheerier than it was, and there are pretty little flowers decorating the hedgerows! Snowdrops have arrived and shown us that lighter days and warmer … Continue reading Snowdrops around Exeter

July 26, 2016October 21, 2016 / devondaze / 1 Comment

http://visitmoretonhampstead.co.uk/A perfectly placed park! The views from The Sentry are incredible and time spent here always leaves me feeling happier with the world!

RSPB Pond Dipping and Tractor Ride – Aylesbeare

July 25, 2016July 14, 2017 / devondaze / 1 Comment

We booked onto this trip after seeing it advertised as part of the Heath Week celebrations in East Devon. The (free) car park and meeting point was easy to find following the directions on the booking information and, due to our tardiness we boarded the tractor trailer straight away. The ride was bumpy but extremely … Continue reading RSPB Pond Dipping and Tractor Ride – Aylesbeare
