The site is on the fringe of the Exmoor National Park, yet still within easy reach of the magnificent North Devon coastline. There is a superb choice of 5 local beaches including Woolacombe, which has been acknowledged as one of the top ten beaches in the world and is a regular winner of both Blue Flag and Premier Awards for beach safety and cleanliness.

North Devon Countryside

Ilfracombe HarbourThe astonishing natural beauty of North Devon combines the superb coastline with the distinctive countryside, often meeting with stunning consequences. Neat patchwork quilts of fertile farmland, wild rugged moorland and wide open spaces all combine to make this corner of England so unique.

It's difficult to imagine any part of Britain more awe-inspiring than the rugged wilds of nearby Exmoor. Covering an area of 250 square miles, this National Park is every rambler's idea of heaven, where red deer and wild ponies stalk the steep valleys and gorges while buzzards and falcons soar overhead.

Wherever you choose to go, whatever you choose to do, there's always the peace and tranquillity of the countryside to offer a means of escape from the demands of everyday life. In fact the Council for the Protection of Rural England classifies North Devon as one of only three areas in the country that can still officially be called "tranquil".

North Devon Beaches

The Perfect Summer Setting

The North Devon Coastline has a charm of its own, with beaches to rival the most exotic of Mediterranean resorts. Stretching along the coast from Woolacombe to Westward Ho! are some of the finest - and importantly the cleanest - beaches to be found anywhere in Europe.

Two of the beaches have been consistent winners of the coverted European Blue Flag, placing them amongst the top beaches in the country for safety and cleanliness
