I have been looking at National Trust sites. There are quite a few within a short distance, and a few that would be better off the next day as we head to Brixham. Waypoint 3 is Kingston Lacy .

I haven't finished yet as we need a visit to the sea whilst we are out. The start and end is of course the camping ground.

So instead we will go a few days earlier in the RV/van/motorhome (yet to be named!). By May we ought to have a few trips under our belts.  There is only so much you can learn from books and magazines.

Once the van is ready for collection we can look at going out locally. Probably for one night to get the hang of it. Plus we have to mak...
