Our B&B
Taken in September 1973.
The B&B we stayed in our one night in Cornwall (or Devon -- wherever we were). Four rooms, one of which they rented out to occasional travelers like us.
Here the owner takes Lin for a walk around the yard. A sign in front of the house read, "dental plates fixed while you wait." (Another source of retirement income?) When we told him we'd now be driving back to Exeter, he strongly urged us to take a short byway to the town of Chagford, which he said was very lovely. We decided to follow his advice. (He also said something about "Brentor," though whether that's where we were or a place we should visit, I can't remember.)
He said they didn't often have Americans stay with them but he had noticed that they sometimes took two showers a day, and that they tended to take long ones. (I thought he was telling us we had used up his hot water that morning.)
