The sandy beach of Westward Ho! with its great views out towards Lundy Island which can be visited on a day trip is popular with surfers, windsurfers, and beach lovers alike and is just over two miles away. The beautiful, child friendly, sandy beach at Instow is on the other side of the estuary and accesible by ferry or road. There are plenty of local attractions and amenities nearby including Royal North Devon Golf Course, horse riding stables, an indoor swimming pool, fishing, sailing and water-skiing facilities. Family attractions include the Big Sheep and Milky Way theme parks, Dartington Crystal Factory, Tapeley Park, and the Tarka Trail, which is popular with walkers, runners, cyclists and follows a disused railway line all the way to Barnstaple and Torrington in the opposite direction.
And then there is the Southwest Coast Path which offers in North Devon alone, 90 miles of walks with amazing and dramatic coastal views. Whether you are seeking the perfect base to explore all that North Devon has to offer, or the perfect getaway location to relax and unwind in comfort with a touch of traditional simplicity, this property is the perfect choice for you.

A quirky charming property with all the modern aspects a family could want. In a location steeped in maritime history of which this house was no doubt part. An ideal base for explorers on foot or car the local beaches and shops demand your attention. Then return to the cosy warmth of Tillerman Cottage, wonderful!
