Well, starting this stage in early April was very different to starting the last stage at the end of December! Meeting up at the start of Trebarwith Strand brought a childlike excitement (after a leisurely breakfast on the beach due to a mix up with times, SORRY GUYS #moonface) at the thought of getting outContinue reading “STAGE 11 | PART 2 | TREBARWITH STRAND to PORT ISAAC | April 2020”

For the first time since starting our journey on the path we were more than a little apprehensive. Much to our ego’s disdain, as you may remember lovely readers, the last leg LITERALLY broke us. Not even being dramatic – Eve needed to see a physio and Lu, well she may need us to carryContinue reading “STAGE 11 | PART 1 | BOSCASTLE TO TREBARWITH STRAND | December 2020”

For those of you familiar with ‘The Path’, you’ll know this is rumoured to be the toughest stage. Although not the longest, it is very exposed and can be very gusty, which can make climbing a lot trickier, and it is also peppered with BAH (Big-ass hills). And we mean big. So, this stage isContinue reading “Stage 9 – Hartland Quay to Bude – 22nd August 2020”

After the chaos Mama Earth just keeps throwing at us, we were chomping at the bit to get going! Arriving in two separate cars to try and keep safe and minimize risks, we set off from Clovelly. This section warns us that it starts off easy but quickly gets hillier. Bring it on we said!Continue reading “Stage 8: Clovelly to Hartland Quay”

All week we had been exchanging weather related messages, anxious (obviously!) that our plans would have to be postponed by storm Ciara. However, the day before we were due to go, the forecast shifted and the day looked reasonable… though we did later admit we would have probably pushed our luck even if it didn’t!Continue reading “Stage 6 part 2 | Instow to Westward Ho”

Itching for post-Christmas movement (mostly wanting to walk off the kilos of cheese consumed…) we set off, starting from Braunton. Grey and drizzly but reasonable. Because of hectic work/holiday schedules there was a lot to catch up on… Apparently that speeds us up because we zoomed out of Braunton, passing the RAF Search and RescueContinue reading “Stage 6 Part I | Braunton to Instow | 27th December 2019”

CHRISTMAS. December lunacy, Christmas shopping, endless raffles, play dates, work commitments, fairs, Christmas jumper days, social gatherings, Christmas parties, family visits, present wrapping, you get the picture. Overwhelmed? Yeah, us too… We’ve been pretty quiet on here recently as we’ve both been well and truly swept up in the Christmas whirlwind. But here are theContinue reading “Christmas and other December lunacy…”

Stage 5, Woolacombe to Braunton, 23rd of November: Well, this blog is a lot longer than the previous stages! Mainly because it was done with memory still fresh. The idea of a bit of storytelling after each leg didn’t happen right away. For this stage, it seems the journey was more eventful than the walk! OurContinue reading “Stage 5, Woolacombe to Braunton, 23rd of November 2019”

Stage 4 – Combe Martin to Woolacombe: 24th of October. Surely this stage is easier, right? Right?! A drive to Woolacombe via Exford to grab Alice, followed by a dog-friendly taxi to take us to Combe Martin. Weather looking promising, lets go! Straight up another hill.. Quite a bit of road work at the startContinue reading “Stage 4 – Combe Martin to Woolacombe: 24th of October 2019”
