Exmoor House CMC Site, Dulverton.

Well it is December so for our final trip of the year we have set off for Dulverton. This time, in view of the road works on the A39 we have opted to use the M4/M5 option. Traffic was not too bad and we passed a few other caravans on the road. 
We arrived at the site and soon were set up on our fully serviced pitch.
 
All set up


As it was Friday we opted for fish and chips for dinner from the local shop, which is only a two minute walk from the site.  
One of the real advantages of this site is that it is right in the middle of town, so there is no need to use a car.
On the Saturday we went down to Morrisons  in Tiverton, where Lizzie enjoyed zooming round the store buying Christmas treats for the family whilst I got on with the normal shopping.
I went to Church on Sunday morning, then we spent much of the day in Dulverton where 'Dulverton by Starlight' was taking place. Then it was back to the caravan where we cooked dinner and then watched the firework display.

On Tuesday we had an early start as Lizzie had a check up after her cataract operation that had been done the previous week. For this we had to go to The Circle hospital at Peasdown St John, which is just south of Bath. We had a good run up, M5, then on through Wells. 
Check up done, we headed back and came through Dunster and then over the top of Exmoor. 

Wednesday saw us driving to Bideford to inspect the house that Jade and James are hoping to buy. House looked good and was close to the sea. Looks as though we will be driving to Devon on a regular basis now.

Woods Restaurant in Dulverton was where we went for lunch on Thursday. It was absolutely superb as usual.   www.woodsdulverton.co.uk

 So that was it, our last trip of the year over. Commitments at home prevent us getting away in January, so our next trip will be early February.
