    HD. Just for information, there are two turn offs on the A30 for Ottery. One is a bigger and better road than the other. If you are travelling West on the A30 (towards Exeter), the second turn off is the better road. Not sure that this helps but I used to deliver at the hospital at Ottery so I know its a better way in.

    The A375 from the Hare & Hounds corner to Sidford is doable in a MH as well but not recommended tor towing. Watch out for the protruding houses though.

    Honiton is a nice little town with a decent chippy and a couple of supermarkets. Sidmouth sports a Waitrose if you want to go up market🙂. Enjoy the donkeys - dogs are welcome.

    Thanks TW, I was mainly asking about the road through to Ottery ,as we might use the Sainsburys , but most of our time  will be at the Donkey sanctuary 

    we have adopted a Donkey and want to see if we can pick her out smile

    I didn’t know they had a Sainsbury’s in Ottery. It’s Tesco and Lidl in Honiton, or it was last time I was there. 

    I can't remember the Ottery road well enough to advise but others seem to know, as will the warden.👍🏻

    Well done with the adoption👏🏻👏🏻

    Pretty new, then. Ottery is spreading quite rapidly from the small place it was.

    Deliver at the hospital? Will encouraging HD with "come on now, push" help? wink

    Ottery is a lovely little town.  If you have time there’s an excellent garden centre just north of the town (B3177)....Otter Nurseries, and Joshua’s Harvest Store around the same place.  Both do good food and worth the 2 min drive out of town
