You wont have to go far to enjoy this wonderful spot, for you can see it from your bedroom windows. Walk to the end of the world (our valley) where you can gaze up at the rocks which tower above you. There is a bathing hole in the river nearby which flows from the mountains above. It is a lot colder than our pool though!
You can also drive to a viewpoint on the top of the cliffs for amazing views.
