A night in Lower Odcombe

With thanks to the Camping and Caravanning Club we came across this excellent small campsite - in the grounds of the Masons Arms - which has its own micro brewery

Despite this sign, the locals were friendly!

This museum is in nearby Montacute

I then found this gem of a museum

Remember the days when petrol was this price?
