The bustling village of Hartland, with its nearby colourful quay and lighthouse, provides visitors with a wide selection of amenities, including an interesting craft shop, good pubs and several great places to eat. Just one mile out of the village situated within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, lies Hartland Abbey, where visitors can peruse the stunning collection of paintings and porcelain before relaxing in the Abbey's beautiful gardens. Alternatively the nearby coastal headland of Berry Head, with its dramatic cliffs and coves, offers excellent walking and nature watching opportunities. The pretty, car-free village of Clovelly lies just five miles away and is renowned for its flower-strewn cottages, steep cobbled streets, 14th century harbour and The Milky Way Adventure Park, home to Devon's biggest rollercoaster, whilst a short drive leads to another fun-packed and educational family day out at The Big Sheep, a fantastic adventure park. The unspoilt coastal resorts of Bude, Bideford and Instow are both within 15 miles making this a superb base for a varied and enjoyable holiday.

A great shower and excellent accommodation. A well appointed kitchen and dining area with a separate fridge and freezer. If you want a peaceful, relaxing holiday, this is the place to come. Our hosts, Ian and Ali, are lovely caring and knowledgeable couple, it was a delight to meet them. Set in the beautiful Heartlands country side, there is very little noise apart from the occasional aircraft and tractors. Plenty of walks especially for our Woofer! Heartlands Village farmers market is a must for a visit as are the local village pubs. Heartlands Quay is superb and there are lovely local places to visit, on foot or by car. We had a superb quiet 2 weeks stay and thoroughly recommend Windbury cottage.
