Johnny Kingdom declares his love for Devon!


We had some great fun today on Saunton sands beach where we met up with my friends Johnny Kingdom (well-known wildlife expert), and Johnathan Marshall (one of the Uk's top Falconers).
It was a wonderful sunny day with perfect surf rolling into the shore and magnificent clear views stretching out past the Braunton Burrows with Clovelly and Hartland Point in view.   You can watch the video of Johnny and Jonathan when we upload it tomorrow to find out what makes Devon their favourite place to be.   Jonathan Marshall brought his beautiful birds, including a Golden Eagle, Peregrine Falcon and Pure White Gyr Falcon (the only one in Britain). The stunning views that stretch along the dramatic coastline of Saunton Beach and across the fascinating World Heritage Site at Braunton Burrows (the only Unesco Biosphere reserve in Britain) have attracted names such as Robbie Williams and Pink Floyd in the past, and most recently James Cracknell and Ben Fogle for their South Pole Race training. We also had a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea up on the sand dunes over-looking the beach, kindly served to us by Brend Hotels.  We would like to say a big thank you to Christies Estates for allowing us to use their land for this meeting.
I will be bringing you more of our story about our Devon adventure tomorrow so check back soon.    www.visitdevon.co.uk
