Soak up incredible sea views on the short mile stroll along the footpath to the local pub. On the way home, make the most of the areas spectacular dark skies – some of the darkest in Europe – and spend the evening stargazing.
With the sea so close, the opportunities for watersports or simply enjoying time on the beach are endless. A little further afield, Lynton is a great destination if you’re missing ordinary life.
