A weekend in the country

One Saturday in January we set off in a hired car for a drive in the South West English country side. Our first stop was the pretty little village of Winchester. It had Tudor buildings an old market and most importantly lovely cafes! We past an Otter and Owl park and could not resist stopping. The otters were funny but everyone else was asleep!!! We made our way to the sea and almost go blown in!! There were crazy surfers in full body wetsuits trying to surf but it was completely flat!! As it got dark we found ourselves in the village of Dorchester. We found a nice B&B pub to stay in and enjoyed a stroll around town and a delicious Italian dinner.

The next morning we slowly made our way back to London stopping at Bournemouth to walk on the pier and play in an arcade. We past through the New Forrest where horses run free and graze next to the road and without warning cross it!!

We stopped in a picturesque town called Beaulieu. It literally had a post office, corner store and a pub!!! We had a relaxed lunch and drink before heading home. It was a lovely relaxing weekend through the beautiful English country side.
