    “The room is a spacious and comfortable for two and the kitchen is well equipped.”

    We enjoyed our week exploring the area and found some nice restaurants and pubs nearby. We took our own roku box which worked fine for streaming on the wifi. The party house next door was only occupied for two nights during our stay so we weren't really disturbed. The sofas could do with a regular deep clean to get rid of the wet dog smell and the cooker hood was so dirty with dust, fluff and dead flies that it rather put me off cooking anything on the hob.

About the location

BARNSTAPLE

Exeter 40 miles.

Barnstaple enjoys a superb location at the mouth of the Taw Estuary, on the spectacular North Devon coastline between Westward Ho! and Croyde and is a short drive from the Exmoor National Park. Barnstaple is a busy traditional Devon coastal town with a pannier market, shops, restaurants and bars, along with two fabulous sandy beaches, which are popular with surfers and families. The town is renowned for its floral displays having won a Britain in Bloom award and flowers are found around every corner of the town in the most unusual places. Barnstaple lies at the end of the magnificent Tarka line railway journey, which takes you through the spectacular North Devon countryside of wooded river valleys, rugged moorland and a stretch of coastline, plus close by is the picture postcard coastal village of Clovelly. A combination of numerous long sandy beaches and family attractions makes Barnstaple a desirable holiday destination.
