We explore the wilds of Dartmoor and Bodmin National Parks. First, its Canonteign Falls, England's highest waterfall, and then Clapper Bridge where we can lookout for Dartmoor Ponies. Go for a walk and perhaps climb one of the many 'tors' before making our way into Cornwall. We then head to Newquay, the UK's surf capital and our base for two nights.
