Wir hatten ein paar wundervolle Tage an diesem zauberhaften, ruhigen Ort. Dartmoor, Plymouth und die Westküste/Cornwall sind super zu erreichen. Man kann aber herrlich auch einfach die Seele baumeln lassen. In Bere Alston gibt es zwei kleine Supermärkte und eine Haltestelle vom Zug. Die Küche ist voll ausgestattet. Der morgendliche Blick auf den Fluss aus dem Bett heraus ist einfach herrlich! Frische Eier, Milch und Brot haben uns bei der Ankunft begrüßt :) Jonathan war super freundlich und hilfsbereit.
