Clovelly to Hartland Quay

We left our camp at Black Church Rock just after sunrise and set off up the hill. The early morning was overcast, but soon turned into a lovely sunny day with a slight breeze.

Our path mainly took us along the field edges, where they butted up against the cliff, with a couple of valleys to descend, and ascend the other side.

 At the edge of one of these fields we found a large section of brambles laden with blackberries, we we tucked into as as a mid-morning snack.

We reached Hartland Point, and unfortunately the cafe was closed for the season, so we pushed on further to Hartland Quay.

We stopped at The Wreckers Inn for some lunch, where we both had a slap-up meal as the lack of a store on route meant we didn’t currently have the provisions to cook an evening meal.

After lunch we continued for a couple of hours before finding a place to camp. As the forecast was for strong winds and rain overnight and continuing into the morning, we found a nice sheltered spot, if a little uneven, to setup the tent.
