Some people in Wales commented on the mountains being 'nice' but i couldn't move away from them,the views were like being inside a picture, Oh to live in a little cottage overlooking Snowdonia National Park... A girl can dream i suppose.. |

I was in Betws-y-Coed only the other week actually, theres a lovely restaraunt near the big car park! green paintwork...look out for it! nice food! As for my most scenic place?? not sure!! i've got loads!
I love the view as you get to the top of Countisbury hill, north Devon, near Lynmouth. I think pretty much anywhere in the lake district does it for me!! anywhere you look!! also ...dovedale in the peak district, near Ashbourne!! beautiful area, although like Betws-y-Coed, gets packed with people!! And i better make this last, i could name thousands!1 but the stretch of road between milford and wolsley bridges, near shugborough hall, I suppose its between Rugeley and stafford, its such a lovely strech of road!! the views are stunning, takes you right across cannock chase, and follows the Shugborough estate, im lucky i get to drive along here quite often at work!! |
