Your comment takes me way back to my childhood in the woods and crags near Kirkby Lonsdale. My grandparent lived in a small vilage not far from Kirby. Clean fresh air mixed in with the usual smells of the countryside.....very little polution from vehicles....wonderful days |

I've found a bungalow there that seems to be the one. It's Rosehip Cottage in Somerton, Somerset. Would like to see the southeast also so expect we'll drive over that direction. |

Along with John it is a lovely part of the country, you will not be dissapointed |
