Romantic Devon.
I love to walk by the sea and in the countryside in our beautiful county. Living in a tourist area there are lots of people around when I walk but sometimes, it's solitude I need and on Saturday I found just that.
The Dartmoor National Park stretches over the centre of Devon and has some breathtaking scenery.
Miles and miles of moorland.
Distant views of the sea.
Granite outcrops.
and pretty Dartmoor ponies.
This too can be a busy place but today was one of those rare days when the sun was shining, the Skylarks were singing as they soared upwards and I walked in complete solitude. It was like a little bit of heaven.
I finished my walk here, a little hidden treasure with no one around and only the sound of ... well nothing.
I sat on a rock alone with my thoughts, absolute bliss!!!!
Then back to the car, a skinny latte and back to my day feeling great.
We all dash about all day in the hubbub of daily life.
As my brother says, ''sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I justs sits''.
Don't forget to take a little time out for yourself. It's up to your whether you think or not!

Good that only a few know where to find this. Away from the wind it has a mini climate of all of it's own. Aren't we the lucky one's. :-)xxx
I wonder how often visitor's visit Haytor and never know what they have missed ! X
I understand what you mean about how nice it is to have a place to yourself for a while. I need a fair amount of alone time myself!
Thank you for sharing.
Blessings,
