Sunday 7th October Plans


We meet at Temple Meads Station by the ticket barrier early in the morning.
* Train Minibus and short ferry will get us to Kingsweir, where
** Walkers will set off for a two and a half hour coastal path walk (bring packed lunch; possibility of dip in sea) to Coleton Fishacre (NT) where we shall spend about an hour and a half (coffee beer etc. available); the walk back inland is about one and a half hours.
** Less strenuous options (no need to decide until we are on train to Totnes) include:
taking boat from Dartmouth to Totnes and back 
taking steam train Kingsweir to Goodrington Sands and back
taking taxi to Coleton Fishacre (price INCLUDED) and walking 2 miles mainly downhill back to Kingsweir
pub lunches are possible in Kingsweir.
* We will all meet up in Kingsweir at about 5.30pm for ferry to Dartmouth for tea.
* We shall also pick up pre-ordered quiches (choice is Goat's Cheese(v); Mushroom and Cheese (v); Leek and Cheese (v) OR Quiche Lorraine - PLEASE LET us know) for the train home to Bristol
* We shall leave Dartmouth by minibus to Totnes to catch trains home (one change onto train which should have a buffet on board)
* We should arrive back in Temple Meads just before 10pm.

We trust you will enjoy it - no guarantees about weather or anything else for that matter!
