Village Life

There are beautiful little villages scattered throughout the countryside here, and one of our favorite things to do is to pick one to visit and spend a while walking around. A few weeks ago we followed a little footpath in one of the villages and it took us through horse pastures, over little fences, and through fields of crops.


There are public footpaths like this all over the area and I can't wait to explore some more of them. It was a perfect morning.

A lot of the villages also have published historical walks you can take through them that show buildings of interest and dates, etc. I can't get enough of the thatched roofs and flower boxes on all the little cottages. It is so fun to be surrounded by so much history and so much beauty.
