Short holiday in England: From Somerset to Wales

Actually we had just a long weekend in England.

Nellie, Tasty and Magic were adopted by some friends for these days, so Rainer and I were able to travel together. Q and Ruby accompanied us.

On our way to Somerset we passed Stonehenge.

After a looong journey we had two short visits at Scottie breeders. In the evening we arrived at the hotel, south of Bristol.

Next day we were off to Wales. Liz Bradleys had showed us the nicest route - she was right.

This landscape is beautiful and breathtaking!

Abergavenny Castle, built in 1087!

Here you can get a few more informations: http://irenamorgan.users.btopenworld.com/ecastle.htm

Around the ruins our dogs had a lot of fun.

Molehills all over the place. Q did not knew where he should start digging.

Our next accommodation: Bed and Breakfast in this wonderful country house in Llwyn Madoc.

It is situated completely out-of-the way, surrounded by sheep-runs and forrest. In front of the house is a big garden with Tennis court and fishpond. On the gras there were pheasants and squirrels.

Here we thought we experienced pure British way of live - and we enjoyed it.

Next day took us to the South Wales Kennel Club Championship Show in Builth Wells.

After the show on our way back, we again stopped at Abergavenny to take some more fotos.

Next day we already had to drive home - unfortunately.

We are really sure to come back to Wales one day.
