The Brecon Beacons are a mountain range in South Wales. In a narrow sense, the name refers to the range of Old Red Sandstone peaks which lie to the south of Brecon. Sometimes referred to as "the central Beacons" they include South Wales' highest mountain, Pen y Fan.
Pen y Fan is the highest peak in South Wales, situated in the Brecon Beacons National Park. At 886 metres above sea-level, it is also the highest British peak south of Cadair Idris in Snowdonia. It is the highest point of the historic county of Brecknockshire.
Madeira: Day 2 &3: Glamping in a hidden paradise - introducing Papaia Tipi. Wake up surrounded by tropical banana trees and papai, listening to the waves crashing on the beach below and the fresh spring water cascading down the waterfall. Pure relaxation surrounded by indigenous flora high on the cliffs with spectacular views. Pure Zen....
The border river between Namibia and Angola, the Kunene, plummets down a 40 metre deep gorge at the Epupa Falls close to the nearby village of Epupa. In the Herero language Epupa means “falling water”. Raw Africa at its best. My favourite place in Namibia. One of the highlights of Kaokoland in the far northern reaches of Namibia, Epupa is a magical belt of makalani palm forest on the perennial Kunene River.
Snowdonia is a region in northwest Wales concentrated around the mountains and glacial landforms of massive Snowdonia National Park. The park's historic Snowdon Mountain Railway climbs to the summit of Wales's highest mountain, Mount Snowdon, offering views across the sea to Ireland. The park is also home to an extensive network of trails, over 100 lakes and craggy peaks like Cader Idris and Tryfan.
With its stunning mix of ancient woodlands, heathland, rivers and valley mires, the New Forest National Park is a very popular holiday destination for people who love camping and the outdoors. The Pig in Brockenhurst is is all about the walled garden… everything is driven by the gardener/forager and chef – they grow and find the food – the chef then makes the menu.
St Davd's is the smallest city in Britain and has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries.
North Devon is a coastal area of southwest England, known for its dramatic cliffs, wild seas and sandy beaches at Woolacombe, Saunton Sands and Croyde Bay. Natural features range from biodiverse sand dunes at Braunton Burrows to rocky coves along the South West Coast Path, which spans the coastline. The Tarka Trail footpath and cycleway passes the riverfront, medieval town of Barnstaple.
Durdle Door is a natural limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast near Lulworth in Dorset, England. It is privately owned by the Weld Family who own the Lulworth Estate, but it is also open to the public. Thomas Hardy (one of my favourite authors) had lived in Dorset for much of his life, was familiar with the Dorset coast, and had used Lulworth Cove (under the light disguise of 'Lulwind Cove') as the location of Sergeant Troy's disastrous swim in chapter XLVII of Far from the Madding Crowd
