British Camp

Continuing the occasional series of "Katy and Abi go for walking with the dogs". Plan A was a weekend in Pembrokeshire, camping and walking some bits of coast path.  But then we remembered that Pembrokeshire is quite a distance away and the weather forecast looked a bit crap, so time for Plan B.  This involved flicking through several local guidebooks and maps and eventually settling on the Malverns.

Starting at Hollybush, we headed for British Camp via Millennium hill, then down to the Malvern Hills Hotel.  As it wasn't quite midday we debated if it was too early to stop for lunch, but decided against walking further as the rain seemed to be getting heavier.  Turns out this was a very good decision as it absolutely chucked it down the whole time we were eating.

As we left the pub after finishing our roast dinners, we noticed a sign on the door saying "sorry no dogs today".  Fairly sure that wasn't there when we arrived, as it's a very dog friendly pub - Tilly and Cai weren't the only ones in there by a long shot!  Maybe they were actually just running out of space to fit all the dogs in...

Our route back took us past the reservoir and skirted the edge of the woods before rejoining the track back to the car park.

About 10km in total I think, though as I didn't pause my watch while we were in the pub  it went a bit squiggly mad and added on some extra imaginary distance.
