Remains of Gara Bridge station, 1995. View southward in Devon Avon Valley, towards Kingsbridge: ex-GWR Brent - Kingsbridge branch. Closed entirely withe the whole branch from 16/9/63, the station buildings and single platform have survived. An idyllic scene?

Trout Farm near Gara Bridge. Build a couple of pools in a nice valley, stock with fish, advertise and wait for the hopeful fishermen to turn up.

One night stay and it was quitw good. The bed was comfy the shower was great. The whole place is very new hip and fresh. Only downside is the staff at reception and restaurant. Everything takes absolute ages! Maybe they're understaffed. Would definitely stay again.
