The road winds between well-weathered drystone walls on each side; the occasional farmhouse and barn perilously close by and over an arched bridge barely wide enough for 1.5 cars.

Our first base was one of the older houses in the area, its drystone walls smoothed and whitewashed, its timbers and decorative carvings painted sky-blue.
