Hartland (1.5 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.

Clovelly Court Garden (1.6 miles)
This Victorian walled kitchen garden has magnificent greenhouses where melons, apricots, figs, peaches and nectarines grow. Take a stroll on the terraced lawns for fantastic views out to Lundy Island, or take a longer walk through the rhododendrons and woodlands to Clovelly village. The herbaceous borders are ablaze with colour in midsummer. Open March to October.

The Hart Inn (1.7 miles)
At the centre of the outstanding peninsula of Hartland, this traditional olde world inn overlooks the village square and serves great food sourced locally where possible and a wide range of real ales and fine wines. In the Summer you can enjoy a meal in the beer garden.

Clovelly (2.1 miles)
A beautiful, unspoilt fishing village enveloped in green countryside. From Clovelly it is easy to take a boat trip across to Lundy Island, a pristine little wilderness just off the coast.

Red Lion Hotel (2.2 miles)
Perched at the harbourside, the Red Lion Hotel specialises in seafood.

Hartland Abbey and Gardens (2.7 miles)
Set in stunning countryside, Hartland Abbey has a deer park within which peacocks, donkeys and guinea fowl roam and graze.
