Tomorrow we head off in the Campervan for a few days away from our campsite in Conil.

During the latter part of this week, we took part in the weekly quiz, again falling short of a prize slot, enjoyed a picnic on the beach, tapas in Conil and a second visit to El Nautico.

Richard and Jennifer headed off to Malaga after another lovely lunch at El Nautico.

This years blog is starting to look more like a restaurant review page than a travel blog! Today we walked along the beach into town as there was a jacket Moe wanted to buy. However, being a Tuesday, the clothes shops were all closed although we did stumble across an Italian Pizza restaurant for lunch.

It’s become a tradition of ours to eat Pizza on a Tuesday – mostly at our favourite pub in Topsham, the Bridge Inn. A fine example of a “time-stood-still” pub with the most amazing fresh Pizzas cooked to order by “Ember Pizza”. There are no finer pizzas to be sampled…

Today’s offering was at Zio Lele, opposite the indoor market in Conil. I’m more of a meat feast kind-of-guy but the fish pizza was excellent. The view isn’t quite the same as the one on offer across the River Clyst in Topsham, but I doubt many were enjoying it on a wet Devonian February day. The weather here remains warm, dry and pleasant.

We didn’t really plan our day properly as later in the afternoon we were entertained at Jennifer and Richard’s plot for even more food – homemade flatbread and a selection of chocolate cakes.

One of our favourite restaurants has just re-opened after their new year vacations – El Nautico at the Port of Conil. Despite Richard being told there was no need to book, different rules apply on a weekend, where booking is apparently essential.

We managed to secure a table for a somewhat hurried meal. No changes to the menu, the view or the company! All first class.
