Subject: RE: BS: Suggest great places to visit Devon/Cornwall
Just north of Bude there's Duckpool, a dramatic little bay with tall cliffs either side and big waves if you're lucky, or Morwenstow, where you can visit the church of which the Reverend Hawker was the vicar. From there it's a stroll to the coast path where you'll find Hawker's Hut, made of driftwood, where the aforementioned man of the cloth would go and smoke his opium pipe whilst contemplating the wild Atlantic far below. If you time it right you could have a cream tea at the Rectory tea-rooms just across from the church - highly recommended!
