Hi All Can anyone help please? We are trying to remember the name and place of somewhere we once went when we were on holiday. We think it may have been somewhere near North Devon. All we can remember is that it was a nice walk near a river and there was a cascade of water coming down a cliff that landed in a swirling pool which they called 'The Witches Cauldron'. Has anyone any idea where it may have been and what it may have been called please? Chrissie x

Thanks Christine. Yes, I could try googling. The only thing is that the actual place isn't called The witches cauldron and we aren't even sure where it is :)) Will have a go though. I just hoped someone may know what I am talking about lol:)) Chrissie x

Hi Dawn - I didn't ask you because I have to tell you about all the places of interest in your area anyway lol:)))) Hi Gwyneth Yes, it could possibly have been Wales. I googled for North Devon, so I wouldn't have found that one. Will go back and have another look. Hi Maureen It could have been in the Cheddar area too but I doubt it because when we have been to Cheddar we haven't stayed longer than 2 nights and hubby seems to think that wherever it is, it is a little way from where we normally stay. The trouble is that I think there are a few Witches Cauldrons about. We know of one on the Isle of Wight too but that's a different one. Thanks for trying all anyway:)) Chrissie x

The trouble is Christine - WHICH area lol. I have brochures already from all over the country. I have turned choosing a holiday into an art form:)) Trouble is though that I think this particular witches cauldron is a bit off the beaten track lol:))
