    Hi Louise, I'm glad to say, I've managed to find your Starcross to Exmouth video on You Tube, I must have been trying to locate it on Facebook earlier, without success, I've just watched your excellent video, and once again you've made my day, because although me and my wife didn't do the boat trip you were on, we did quite a number of the Stuart Line cruises, on the large boat #The Pride of Exmouth#, and our favourite one was a sail from Exmouth to Sidmouth, and return, which was a beautiful 2.5 hour sail, also from your boat, I could make out the hotels me and Heather stayed at on the promenade at Exmouth, and your video also covered the marina area, which was also a favourite of ours, thank you for helping me to recall so many happy memories with my late wife, and am glad you still remember seeing me at the steam train gala about three weeks ago, which has still got me buzzing! Keep up the good work, Louise, as you must give older people like me, who can't get out to do the driving and walking any more, lots of pleasure keep up the good work, martin😊

      So pleased that you found it Martin and that you enjoyed it! That’s lovely that you saw places in it that reignited memories of special times. Those hotels look lovely on the seafront.
      I picked up a timetable for the Stuart Line cruises from their booking office in the marina. I definitely hope to go on one or two this year. The one you mention sounds really good!
      Wat h out for a video as soon as I get an opportunity ⛴️

    I knew about the Atmospheric railway, but not the little ferry which crosses to Exmouth. Nice video, Louise. Thank you for sharing.

    We enjoyed this thank you for sharing. The chips looked good. Even though you had grey sky the views from the ferry were Stunning ❤

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад +2

      Thank you! Yes, those chips were very good! I had walked there from Dawlish Warren that day, so was ready for them! It was a very cold February day when I filmed that with ice still on the pavements, but a lovely blue sky!
      I agree, the views from the ferry were stunning. Really looking forward to doing this trip again one day. Have a good Sunday 🤗

    Enjoyed seeing Exmouth again, I worked in a hotel there back in the 80's but never went to Starcross so nice to see it. Can't remember the marina area (probably hadn't been built) 😂 . Lovely dogs on the boat. 😊

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks Caroline! It looks like Exmouth has some lovely hotels, especially tte seafront ones. I would love to live and work so close to the sea. Aww! Yes, the dogs were lovely! Made the trip even nicer!

    Fabulous Louise. We keep saying we are going to head to Exmouth again as when we visited it was very bad weather. This addition of the ferry seems like a good idea. Thanks for sharing with us. 👍🏻🚶🏻‍♂️🚶‍♀️

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks Watto! Exmouth is lovely. Hoping to return there again soon. There are lots of other boat trips out from there too.

    Haven’t been to Exmouth for years, looks good. Saw you the other day walking past my work (won’t say where) . Had to tell all my colleagues 😀

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад

      Thank you! Yes, Exmouth is lovely! I definitely want to do some more videos from the area. That’s fab to know you saw me!! I was probably in a dream world 🤣 Come and say Hello next time 🤗

    Lovely video Louise. The boat trip will be great to do in fine weather. You'll have to go back! 😊 The chips looked good too!

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks Amanda! A return trip is definitely in order on a sunny day ☀️☀️
      I made a summer video there a couple of years ago, but my editing has improved since then, so I hope to make another one.

    Must try Starcross to Exmouth ferry one day as it looks very enjoyable.

    That's really interesting about the atmospheric railway - there's an example of one in the SS Great Britain's Being Brunel exhibition.
    I think I've only ever been to Exmouth once before but don't really remember much about it. The ferry looked fun, I imagine on a winy day it would blow away the cobwebs! 🤣
    Those chips sounded really crispy too. Yum.

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад

      Haha! Yes! The chips were really crispy! I would love to see that example. Brunel is such a fascinating character and inventor.
      I am looking forward to returning to Exmouth on a bright sunny day again soon.

    Always wanted to do this ferry ride Louise!
    So good to see you have done it on your channel.
    Definitely the best way to arrive in Exmouth.
    The Exe Estuary is such a beautiful river with a lot of nature and wildlife.
    I thought you had a new companion to join you on your walks and explores there for a moment! Ah, the ship's dog he keeps the passengers for the ferry company.
    Another really lovely video Louise.
    Really enjoyed this!
    Thank you.
    Take care,
    Paul

      Thank you Paul!! Haha! I should adopt a dog to take with me on my walks and explorations … or borrow one! These two were lovely and seemed to do a great job of greeting passengers 🤗
      It really is a very nice way to arrive in Exmouth. I really enjoy a boat ride and I have discovered some lovely ones in the South West since starting my channel. Loads more to try too! ⛴️

    Hi Louse,
    Can we Travel from temple mead train station to Star-cross?

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад +1

      Hello! I think you would need to change trains at Exeter St David’s.

    Louise I worry I mentioned about train spotting in a previous comment and you now make comment of it in this video. Have you a confession to make I really hope you were not there with your note book and pen. 😂😂😂

    • @SouthWestSundays
      @SouthWestSundays  5 месяцев назад +3

      🤣🤣 A note book and pen yes, but not train spotting. Just notes for the video.
