 Lynmouth
|
|
| Lynmouth
was a fishing village but now , very very, busy in the summer.
A good staging post to tour around Exmoor and the Devon/Somerset
coast.
Pretty place with the River Lyn running through the village.
The river flooded in 1952 nearly destroying the village and
killing 31 people.
Well worth a visit, even in peak summer season. Shops a bit
too touristy.
