Ticking off a few..

After a few days off work visiting family and friends we had 1 spare day to head out in the Beast.  Doing a circular trip is tough in 1 day..  can’t go too far and have to do some motorway miles just so we can get further afield.

In the end we headed over to the Cotswolds and then the Malvern Hills before heading home via Stratford.   The Cotswolds were pretty and delivered an amazing pub find (The Lamb Inn, Great Rissington) but the real show stopper of the day was the Malvern Hills..  stunning place with little towns hanging onto the edge of steep hillside, definitely on the ‘go back for longer’ list.

oct16malvernmapIn total we did 285 miles in 9 hours, with a couple of stops for food and coffee.  A long day but great to tick off 4 counties and give the Landy a good run.

 

 

Next long trip will be in 2017..  plans are afoot to visit Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of White.  All the ferries!!  😀
