17th October 2008

By the misty tors of Dartmoor
By the swiftly flowing rivers
Stood a guest house known as Beechwood
Guest house fine as any other
There Lorraine & Andrew fed us
Fed us produce fresh & local
Found the comfort, found the beauty.
Lovely views and clucking chickens
Chickens free and laying gladly
Cats there were enjoying stroking
To this haven by the river
We will return - forget it never.
