Somerset Coast Path by Damian Hall

Exmoor's soaring, pony-dotted plateaus; otherworldly rock formations; plunging sea cliffs; the bulbous Quantocks; bird-crowded lowlands of international importance; gracefully fading Victorian seaside resorts; remote bays and fossil-packed beaches; wind-bothered sand dunes; big views; melodramatic moorlands; landscapes soaked in the mythology of Kings Arthur and Alfred, which directly inspired the Romantic poets; intriguing (and dark) maritime history; extravagantly snaking rivers; lighthouses on legs . . . One day soon the Somerset Coast Path – from the heart of Bristol to Lynton/Lynmouth – will form part of the planned England Coast Path. Much of it is already in place, and it's an eventful, dramatic walk. Damian Hill’ s guide celebrates the landscape, towns and villages along the way, and introduces you to the history and wildlife that enrich this beautiful part of the country. * Ordnance Survey mapping for the entire route, plus GPS references * Detailed route descriptions to guide you safely along * Background information on everything from archaeology and history to wild flowers and wildlife * Practical advice on transport, equipment, accommodation and more * Lavishly illustrated with colour photography throughout
