South West Coast Path - Part 1 10-15 October

Cheryl spent a holiday on the south Cornish coast with her sister and had the opportunity to walk some of the SWCP. She is hooked!
We organised 4 days of walking form Minehead in Somerset to Ilfracombe in Devon. 40 miles in length, leaving us just 590, to complete the entire path.
We were prepared to operate Plan B and to drive between the B&Bs that we had booked. However we were blessed with wonderful weather, blue skies and just needing one layer most of the time. How lucky was that at this time of year.
Everything exceeded our expectation. The scenery was breathtaking. The B&Bs were excellent and so helpful when we found that we needed some car transport to help us back to our starting point. The buses are very seasonal which is not good for walkers who will generally walk out of the summer season to be able to find accommodation. At one centre we overheard tell of a bus that was going to start running but the officer was not supposed to tell anybody – I wonder how many passengers they got!
We carried what we needed for the 4 days – maybe 8kg when we had water on board. The first day was easy. The second and third days were both of 14 miles and although we completed them without distress, that is as much as we want to walk in a day with a pack on our back.
So, now we are both hooked and aim to complete the SWCP in the next, perhaps 10 years!
