I did in some previous post talk about this very possibility was the idea of the Dawlish Countryside Park to take folk away from the Warren and me being me questioned why someone would walk there rather than the Warren. So it may be that thousands are not flocking to the Countrydide Park as they prefer the smell of salt air and the feel of sand beneath there feet so the alternative solution price ...
