Walking in Dartington

OWe made a stop off at Dartington for a walk on the way to our walking weekend. The Dartington Estate large and includes a group of craft shops. We had a coffee in the famous vegetarian restaurant Cranks before we started.
The route was not very obvious so frequent map checks were needed.


The route took us through the gardens of Dartington Hall. 


Autumn crocus were growing amongst the autumn leaves. 


Dartington Hall itself is a magnificent building with the oldest bit dating back to 1400. It is now a trust and mainly used for conferences. 




After getting lost and taking a short cut we made it back to the cars!


On arrival at our house we found we had fabulous views over Dartmouth.
