It's a Wonderful Life....

Our next day of adventure was to have lunch at Lord Poulet Pub

in Hinton-St George.

The pub was in a wonderful, older-than-dirt building...the lunch was

And then there was the spectacular cathedral path leading out of the village 

We drove the afternoon to Porlock Weir on the Bristol Channel

The town is on the edge of Exmoor National Park

 

Cream tea in the afternoon in a cafe by the sea
Oh. so. special.

Our hotel was right in the harbor of the village

It was a delightful experience....they ushered us into a parlor, took our drink order; came back with our drinks, then took our dinner order...all the while we were seated on overstuffed chairs in a cozy nook overlooking the sea.
They then took us to our table, where our delicious dinner was served.  After dinner we returned to the parlor to enjoy our coffees along with a few sweet treats.

It felt like we were in someone's home....a different experience but very relaxed.
