✈︎ ✈︎ ✈︎ My Holiday In Devon

Last week, my family and I went to Chudleigh, in Devon.

We planned to stay from Saturday to Thursday (6 days). On the first and last day, it consisted of un/packing, so for the other days, we went exploring around Devon!


Day 2 - The Seaside, Crabs and the Pier.

Raspberry Ripple - only one of the best ice creams ever made.


This beach that we found had so many beautiful stones! We took some of the prettiest back to London with us.
We then went to the Crab Shack for lunch, but unfortunately it was fully booked. Instead, we went to the Deli and bought our own crabs.

We ate these two massive crabs!

After ad delicious lunch, we headed to the Pier.


Day 3 - Killerton (National Trust)


I just LOVE this! It's in the cafe!

Day 4 - Buckland Abbey (National Trust)


You could do Brass Rubbing, so my brother brass rubbed a dragon.


The Barn
This machine helped make cider!
The Abbey!
The Garden

I thought this gate was really cute, with the little birds on the branches!

My Mum and I fell in love with this tree. My Mum, being a garden devotee, is trying to find out the name of this tree.
On its branches, you can see little flowers. They smelt absolutely amazing!

Day 5 - Cotehele (National Trust)


On the last day, it started to pour down with rain, and by the time we got there, the house was closed, so we looked in the garden anyway. I didn't want to risk getting my camera wet in the rain, so unfortunately I can't show you any pictures.


The house is a Tudor house, and has only been owned by one family! The family didn't change anything, as they wanted to keep the house as it would have been in Tudor times. They bought it in the 1900s, and gave it to the National Trust many years later.
