Route
This is a relaxed program of walks, we may be able to offer differing walk lengths dependant on demand. The intention is that walkers will book their own accommodation in Barnstaple, e.g Travelodge, Premier Inn, pubs, cottages or apartments. There are many eateries to suit all tastes, hopefully we will meet together on at least one evening. The outline plan is: • Friday 14th March - Meet for a picnic lunch, 7/8 miles afternoon walk en route to Barnstaple. • Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th March – possible linear walk to Ilfracombe or inland country walk • Monday 17th March – There are many nearby National Trust properties for those who have stayed over. Details not finalised as routes & lengths will be weather dependent. At least 1 walk, likely both, will start from the centre of Barnstaple. Plenty of tea shops in the area for non-walkers.

The full itinerary with meet up details for each day will be sent nearer the time
