11:46:49 Hawkins Coffee! | 11:47:50 In Salcombe. | 11:49:29 The little alleyway beside the Ferry Inn in Salcombe, which leads to the passenger ferry. There are at least five signs for the Ferry Inn in shot here. | 12:32:18 Now in Hope Cove, a very rustic dwelling. |
12:39:46 Above Hope Cove. | 12:51:35 | 12:51:49 The view across to Burgh Island. | 12:55:43 |
12:56:16 | 13:44:08 In the Hope and Anchor, the pub in Hope Cove where we had lunch. | 13:44:19 | 13:53:09 A little stroll around the other bit of Hope Cove after lunch. |
13:55:11 | 13:55:29 I have a feeling some part of this plant is edible. | 14:34:32 On the windswept beach at Bantham. | 14:34:40 |
14:36:00 | 14:40:57 Tantalisingly we couldn't quite get to Burgh Island from here because of the river. | 14:50:26 | 15:04:31 A boat house. |
15:07:53 This sign was at the top of the path we walked up from the beach. Oops. | 15:11:53 That boat house from the other angle. | 15:35:27 Determined to get to Burgh Island we took this exciting "tidal road". | 15:35:37 Luckily it was low tide. |
15:51:05 Finally Burgh Island was in our sights! | 15:54:15 There's the rather splendid Pilchard Inn - with a date of 1336 on it! | 15:58:58 From inside the Pilchard Inn. | 16:00:58 Lots of little nooks and crannies here. |
16:18:19 Outside the Pilchard Inn. | 16:18:52 The gates to the art deco Burgh Island Hotel. | 16:20:32 The Pilchard Inn again. | 16:21:19 The sea tractor thing that carries people to and from the mainland at high tide. |
16:21:53 Some parting shots of the Pilchard Inn. | 16:23:34 Burgh Island at dusk, as it was starting to be lit up. We were treated to a flock of birds swooping up and down the beach as we left, which I didn't manage to catch on camera. Quite magical. | 16:27:39 Back on the mainland now. | 20:52:26 In the evening after dinner we decided to get the lower ferry across to Kingswear for a drink or two. |
20:52:33 Less blurry picture. | 20:53:47 | 20:54:22 This was rather fun, and we had the boat to ourselves. | 20:54:42 |
21:08:22 In the Steam Packet Inn, where we had a game of pool. | 21:09:40 | 21:09:50 | 21:10:09 |
21:30:57 Outside the Steam Packet Inn. | 21:55:33 We also popped into the Ship Inn, here's a picture outside there. | 22:02:26 On the way back, again the lower ferry... | 22:04:37 ...and again we had it to ourselves! |
