Our first britstop!
I emailed ahead a few nights ago , Louise (the manager) booked us a table and said we were welcome to use her car park overnight.
Lovely area, nice pub, car park is muddy though.
Went into pub for a coffee, and to let Louise know we had arrived. Got some tomato soup, with slightly toasted bread. Very busy, full of walkers and some locals.
Off for a walk next, a/c along the salmon & hare routes which takes us around the coast of the Severn and through some fields. We passed the 'West End Farm & Campsite'. Seemed really basic, 5 gravel hardstands with EHU and a toilet block.

It was really muddy around the walk though. May be a better walk in the summer?
Meal booked for 7.45 tonight in the pub, will go earlier for a beer or two 🍺
Watched a bit of telly in the van, then pub at 7.
Pate on toast for starters, then steak with two pints of "Rare Bread pale ale" for me, steak and a cider and coke for Laura.
Stuffed! Back to the van...
Hmm. I didn't sleep too well as I was thinking that I needed to use the toilet after a big meal, and it kinda spoiled it for me as I would normally use the camp site toilet. Maybe brit stopping isn't for me? Lau liked it though.
