We then head through Somerset and Dorset to eerie Dartmoor, home of mischievous pixies and a land of Giants, witches and the Hound of the Baskervilles... Crossing over 2000 year old Roman bridges, we then drive through the mysterious Bodmin moor, home of the Beast of Bodmin and past the Jamaica Inn (the setting of Daphne du Maurier's novels). We end the day in the English surfer's paradise of Newquay - great waves and fabulous sandy beaches!

Then its on to the amazing, atmospheric, outdoor theatre of Minack built by one woman last century and based on a Roman amphitheatre. Pretty spectacular stuff with the waves crashing on the horizon!

We spend the night in Glastonbury, overlooking the Abbey, burial place of King Arthur and birthplace of English Christianity. Day 4 Glastonbury - London We depart the town after visiting the medieval tor where the Holy Grail is rumoured to be - if you don't find it, don't worry, the views more than make up for it!
