Overbecks has to be one of the world's best Youth Hostels, sadly closing at the end of the season as being inaccessible by bus it is not economically viable for school groups. A sad reflection on our perception of what's important. It was left to the National Trust on condition it was made available to young people, most YHA guests are our age! Apart from the YH, it has wide views, gardens to live forever in and a wonderfully quirky museum from the previous owner's collection of treasures and inventions.
He was a keen gardener and plant collector with a sense of colour to match his inventive character, and a champion of the Up-and-coming, including sculptors, many of whom are now well known.
Pippa Unwin's "Quest to Amaze"
Jeremy Davies' "White Bird Soaring" and its heat-stressed negative.
Finally, such a bright moon, magnified by sea reflections.
