  Departing London, we set off on our adventure to England's beautifully eclectic west country. We travel to the tiny market town of Wells, really no larger than a small town, Wells has city status owing to its elegant cathedral and Bishop's Palace. Explore Vicar's close (the oldest continuously inhabited medieval street in Europe) or the local shops and tea rooms before we continue to Dartmoor National Park. As the landscape changes we meander through beautiful country lanes, over ancient stone bridges and through dramatic rolling countryside where wild ponies roam. Tonight we stay in the heart of the arresting Dartmoor National Park where we will enjoy a welcome dinner together.

Here we visit the picturesque fishing village of Port Isaac; better known as Port Wen the town famously featured in the television series Doc Martin and you'll enjoy time to explore the familiar sights of the town. Then onwards along the coast to Padstow to enjoy a true highlight as lunch is served at 'The Seafood Restaurant', the flagship establishment of British television chef Rick Stein which serves a mouth-watering selection of locally sourced seafood and international dishes.

  Today is a free day with no group plans allowing you to relax and discover Fowey village at your leisure. Fowey is a typical Cornish fishing town, a centuries-old settlement nestling on the steep banks of the Fowey estuary. Visit the local museum, aquarium or St Catharine's Castle fort overlooking the harbour before wandering the cobbled streets or taking a boat trip out on the sea.
