The Coleridge Way runs for 51 miles from Nether Stowey on the edge of the Quantock Hills AONB, to Lynmouth on the coast of Exmoor National Park. The route travels through a variety of landscapes: heathland, moorland, deciduous & coniferous woodland, farmland, deeply wooded valleys and historic villages with expansive views over the coast towards Wales. Plus there is an endless chain of villages offering fascinating historical architecture and archaeological sites.
Myself, Anna and Ann walked the trail in 3 days, wild camping along the way.

@geoffminter2927 3 года назад

Great video Abbie, lovely views. I was intrigued by Wandsworth's house now owned by triratna Buddhist school as I am a triratna Buddhist! Oh and Coleridge wrote rime of the ancient mariner, the only poem of his I know as I did a paper in it at school many years ago!

@boomshine87 3 года назад

I was walking today and thought that I hadn’t heard from you in a while and I hoped you were doing well! So glad you are back with a great video with special guests 😊 another walk to add to my list now. Sorry you were ill.

Brilliant trio! This kind of long-distance walk is on my wish list for that far-off day when my children are older.

Thanks Abbie & the tripple A gang! That was a great hour or so spent on a wet Sunday morning watching your journey! Much love to all as always 💪🥾

@spinosauruswearingboots4156 2 года назад

Recently found your videos and have been enjoying them. I first encountered Lynmouth on a school trip and have loved the area ever since. A neighbour of mine used to talk about the 1952 floods he was in the army and stationed close by he went to help during the night and the following few days. He was a lovely guy with plenty of stories to tell recently departed unfortunately. I’m looking forward to exploring more of your back catalogue 🙂.

@Karen-dq8nw 3 года назад

Great video! Wonderful hike. I wonder if the seeds in the raspberries caused the stomach distress? Those can be hard on the gut sometimes. Glad it wasn't serious. I had a smile on for most of your film, watching you all have such fun and make so many small discoveries - the frog, the berries, the feather, the flowers. And just relax and appreciate the company. The perfect way to enjoy a group hike.

@DJVOutdoors 3 года назад

This was fantastic Abbie, Anna has great energy can tell the sort of person she is running after that farmer to get permission to camp, hopefully she will be in more of your long distance walking videos. Hoping you release the Cotswolds way soon as I live near it.

@heathercuzner4677 3 года назад

I’ve been wanting to do this trail like forever. Thank you, it looks amazing and I know Porlock really well and a couple of times I’ve walked up to Hurlstone point and around to Selworthy. Porlock is my happy place seeing this made me so happy, I’m so pleased you shared this. I’m determined to to the Coleridge way now. There were so many things I recognised, the church with the stag and the view across Porlock bay towards Bossington and even Webber’s post. So there’s more sculptures to see other than the apple core , it’s all amazing. What a joy to see you all as well. I’m so happy right now.

@sheddi64 3 года назад

Great video, please keep a check on any tick bites for a target like mark around them. This can be a sign of Lyme Disease, it's treatable but you want to get tested if you're unsure. I was unlucky enough to catch it a few years ago and it's unpleasant, I'd hate for you ladies to get it.

That is a fly mask on the horse, a luxury for them in bug season, like looking out of a screened porch, not sad at all!

@lylebardo787 3 года назад

Abbie, thanks so much for your rich travelogue on the CtoC (I haven't seen your newer videos yet!). Makes me want to take the trek myself. Only after vicariously walking with you on your video did i find out my son (Joel Penner) knows you from time at a Bristol film festival a few years back. Small world. He and I took in the Cotswold Way back in ‘16! Take care, and happy trails.

@letsmooch4857 3 года назад

Been watching your videos for about a year now and love them all! - keep up the great work & stay wild!!

@cragus2004 3 года назад

Love that Anne joined you guys for this one :D

@WilderhopeAdventures 3 года назад

With the horse when you said "that's so sad" I'm assuming you were talking about the fly mask, not the flies. Fly masks are very see-through for the horse and a God-send to keep flies off their eyes (where the flies feed on fluid drainage) and the ears. As you could see the horse was already suffering through some flies...would have been so miserable without the mask.

@andrewullyott3811 3 года назад

Great video as always Abbie. Walked this back in 2015 in 4 days. Stayed in Monksilver, Wheddon Cross and Porlock. Found the first day a bit weird as you circle round the Quantocks rather than up Holford Combe and over the top to Bicknoller and like you diverted over Dunkery but the last bit from Porlock was just gorgeous.

@malls886 Год назад

Back in the day this area was owned and managed by a well heeled individual and member of parliament (forgot his name) who, when his serfs/servants grew too old to work did not throw them out. They continued to live on his estate until the end of their days. To repay him they would adopt a path and maintain it, hence, Tom’s Path, Sparrow walk, Cabinet Walk and many others which retain their name to this day.

Bilberries are called Whortleberries over on Exmoor, they are called Whimberries over here in South Wales. There are some pictures of people picking Whortlberries in the 1930’s in a tea room in Porlock. Just love Exmoor, miss it so much, can’t recommend the food and the. Exmoor Gold in the Rising Sun

@WalksWithOlly 3 года назад

Well done, Triple A!! I've just started this walk with a friend (also called Anna); we're doing it in 10-12 mile day walks. I've also questioned why the route arcs around the Quantocks, beneath the hills and I believe it does the same around Dunkery Beacon. I guess the obvious answer is that Coleridge wasn't a fan of hills!! ;-) All the best, Abbie and look forward to seeing more videos from you in time.

@mickjames1609 3 года назад

Hi Abbie.. You have inspired me to do more hill-walking now. I shall be leaving soon so as this may be my last contact with you. It has been a great pleasure joining you on many of your walks. My life is going to change but my walking will have to take place as and when i can get out. Not many has inspired me the way you have and i want to thank you for all of your video,s and talks you have done. Regards Mick..xx

The hood on the face of the horse is to keep the flies off its face, it probably has an injury or infection.

@roberthaken9798 3 года назад

thank you for another great walk with your lovely, bubbly presentation. I noticed that you stop at churches that conveniently have water taps. Am I missing a trick here? Do most churches have a water tap for passing travelers?

@sicooper4230 3 года назад

Many do but urban churches tend not to anymore.

@erwinveenhoven 3 года назад

Most churches have graveyards, graveyards means flowers and taking care of them at all hours. So that's the reason an accessible tap is likely at a church.
