Peace and Plenty (1691)

Hartland (1.8 miles)
Once a busy Georgian market town, Hartland is now a beautiful, peaceful idyll set in stunning surroundings. It’s a rare visitor who leaves without seeing Hartland Abbey; built 850 years ago, the Abbey is a magnificent residence (it is still a family home to this day) which exhibits a variety of architectural styles including Queen Anne and Regency. Hartland Quay, a short distance from the village, is known for the immense rock formations that rear out of the sea; storms battering the north Devon coast here are invariably a dramatic sight.

Docton Mill Gardens (1.9 miles)
Unique gardens consisting of wild flowers, a riverside walk and an unusual bog garden.

Hartland Forest Golf Club (2.4 miles)
This gently sloping course without hills at first looks easy - but beware the many water hazards waiting to trip you up.

Hartland Abbey and Gardens (2.5 miles)
Set in stunning countryside, Hartland Abbey has a deer park within which peacocks, donkeys and guinea fowl roam and graze.

Hartland Quay Hotel (2.5 miles)

Welcombe (2.9 miles)
The majority of those holidaying in North Devon never stumble across Welcombe, yet they are missing out on one of the area’s prettiest villages. Straddling a deep valley, Welcombe is divided by a stream which winds its way to the cliff edge and drops to the sea in a picturesque waterfall. A few miles down the coast is Bude, with half a dozen beaches and pubs, cafes and restaurants galore, but the idyllic atmosphere of Welcombe may prove difficult to leave.
