That's the way I took my lot, then across to Carhampton and up the 32...

It will need to be if you want to eat. The cafe gets packed out. I reckon you want to be there before 10:30. Green Flag route planner estimates 2.5 hours from Exeter so with fuel stops you need to start before 8:00 am.

Provisional plan what I had in my head was to leave Honiton at 8, this was can go up for breakfast at 1030, (a fuel stop and pickup on route) then by the time have breakfast and a wonder round then leave around 12/1230 then wonder back towards west bay for 3 for a cuppa then home.

Sounds good to me. If you go by the A30 I could join at Shaftesbury. Its about half way and there's a handy fuel station.
