From last weekend and a circular hike along the north Exmoor coast. This was the woodland path leading to the picturesque village of Selworthy.

Church of All Saints
The church sits on a hillside above Selworthy, near the northern coast in Somerset. The church is from the 15th century, with a 14th century tower and is whitewashed as opposed to many other churches in England. I wish I had a wide-angle lens as I had to merge two individual photos to get the church into the frame from that angle.

Selworthy
Last weekend, we spent a day at the northern tip of Exmoor National Park. One of the places we visited was the lovely village of Selworthy. Dotted with thatched roof hobbit houses, this made for a fabulous location to have cream tea in the sunshine!
