Down by the sea in Devon

We have been on holiday for the last week, down by the sea in Devon and had a wonderful time.
.

I have said before my dream would be to live overlooking the sea or water and for one week at least my dream came true!
This was the view from the kitchen window. I was happy to do lots of washing up this week!

We stayed at Bovisand in a beautiful chalet. We have stayed here before for a short 2 night break, but it was not enough ! The chalet is situated overlooking Plymouth Sound and opposite are the Cornish villages of Kingsand and Cawsand. The city of Plymouth is just around the corner but it this is so different.
I had bought lots of books and magazines to read, but we spent most of the time we were in the chalet just taking in the view,watching the boats go by and enjoying the sunsets.



The chalet is on a private estate, which is open to the public and the coast path goes through it. There are various beaches.




Just a very peaceful and wonderful place to be....

  9. Oh my gosh! what gorgeous photos.
    Roses here in Southern California can grown most of the year here. I cut them down during December - January to give them some rest. I usually have roses by min-March. This winter we had a lot of warm days so the roses never had a rest and they started to put out bud in February. I'm glad you enjoyed my photos of them.
    Have a lovely day.
