Day 68: Mortehoe to Ilfracombe

A short walk today, so I can linger over breakfast. Rations are a little thin. Then, joy, I discover a piece of squished carrot cake, that I bought yesterday and forgot about.

It is a lovely, still morning, and the scenery is gorgeous.

Lee Bay is beautiful. My favourite spot of the morning.

I reach Ilfracombe quite early, so plenty of time for pear crumble and coffee, before catching a bus for the long journey home. The hill in the background is a reminder of what lies ahead for the final stage of the SWCP.

Walk distance: 8 miles.

Total distance: 968 miles.
