Beautiful Bodium Castle!

The most romantic medieval castle in England. Everyone’s idea of a perfect castle complete with a mote. It is mostly a ruin inside but you can climb 2 towers for magnificent views. We were lucky it was a lovely clear crisp winter’s day. Perfect. The castle was built by a knight with permission from the king. Really enjoyed our time there. A magical place. Drove over to Brighton for a visit to Choccywoccydoodah’s main store. Their cakes are amazing. Moulded chocolate flowers, animals and all manor of objects. Picked up my signed photo they organised for me (I wrote to them from oz) and bought some chocolate..of course. Had a stroll along the Brighton Pier, your typical Victorian ‘jetty’ with fun fair and penny arcade. Boys going down memory lane, then headed over to our holiday house in Cannington. A beautiful restored carthouse. Full of character, exposed beams, antique furniture and all the mod cons, 3 bathrooms..bonus! Had a gorgeous basket of goodies waiting for us and a lovely chat to the owner. A super welcome to somerset!
