Good idea to do that journey from the top deck of a bus. So much more to be seen and captured from this beautiful scenic route. I like those cliff railways and the view of the ground shrinking into the distance. North Devon coastline has always been a favourite go to place for holidays in years gone by and doesn't seem to have been spoilt by todays world. Great tour and history guide 👏
Thanks a lot. Yes you are right. There's been little change there which is nice. It must be so quiet in Lynmouth in the middle of the Winter. Being upstairs in the bus was a bonus as rhe views are amazing. I was surprised that the bus was a double decker bearing in mind it had to climb a 25% hill with twisty turns. 😊😊
@@NicolaExplores Thanks Nicola. This was actually filmed back in May. I'm just very slow when it comes to editing my videos. It is a fantastic journey & only costs £2 each way. 😊😊
@@NicolaExplores I've got a walk i did from Portishead to Clevedon in January I've still to edit. I also don't always edit in the order I shoot videos. Some like the carnival video had to go out as quickly as possible otherwise people lose interest. 😊
This bus route has been on my to do list for a few years now - so far I've only used it to get back form Bossington to Minehead. I want to do it when it's running it's extended route to Combe Martin - when it's running this route it runs to the front door of Combe Martin Dinosaur & Wildlife Park which I am dying to go to again!
@@JessesGrandDaysOut Thanks Jessie. That would be a good journey going all the way to Coombe Martin. We haven't been there for a long time. The bus would have to go inland after Lynton because of the difficult terrain after the valley of the rocks. It would go through Blackmore Gate before heading back to the coast at Coombe Martin. It would be a great journey. 😊😊
@@MartinPopeFilmmaker Nothing too exciting. One of the owners of the pub works in the maritime industry (rather appropriately) and collects all things nautical. The torpedo makes a good talking point and an interesting threshold marker. It's one of many quirky pieces he owns.
@@MartinPopeFilmmaker Me too. I still find it amusing six years after moving to North Devon. Highly recommend the pub and hotel by the way (Ancient Mariner and Bath Hotel).

This looks great Martin. We have added it to our bucket list for next year. Thanks for making it. How funny that we both shared bus rides this week!

@ I’m the same 😂 Don’t always upload in order, just what I fancy doing. I definitely have some filmed from months ago to make 😅

That is indeed an old torpedo.
@@Raysnature Wow. Thanks for the info. It would be interesting to find out the story about why it's there. 😊😊👍👍

@@Raysnature Thanks. I was rather intrigued by it. 😊
