The Gorse Fox and Silver Vixen were esconced in a fine room with a four-poster bed, period furniture, and anachronistically a digital TV and Wifi signal. St Benet's Abbey was a charming spot to stay. The breakfast was excellent and totally relaxed and the whole place just homely (right down to a huge dog - of the "Turner & Hooch" variety that was about the size of a bear - barked like a basso profundo and was scared of its own shadow).It was a bit grey as we started out this morning so we had to think carefully about what we'd get up to. Being only 8 miles from the Eden Project it seemed like a prime candidate to fill the day.
