Places of Interest

Clovelly

Discover the timeless village of Clovelly perched on the side of the North Devon cliffs. The village and its church date back to the 13th century and it really appears to have changed little since. No cars are allowed down its famous cobbled main street, and goods are still transported up and down the very steep hill by sledge. At the top of the village is a very well equipped Visitor centre with a café and shops. Well worth a visit, but don’t wear your high heels!

The Cliff Railway, Lynton & Lynmouth

The cliff railway at Lynton and Lynmouth is one spectacular way to view the stunning coastal scenery without leaving dry land! The railway is a unique Victorian Water Powered Lift, which joins the two villages. Lynmouth is a fishing harbour and from here you have access to the riverside walks through stunning gorges. Set high above the harbour is a few minutes drive from the famous Valley of the Rocks.
