The unspoilt coastal resorts of Bude, Bideford and Instow are both within 15 miles making this a superb base for a varied and enjoyable holiday.

If you want a break in a tranquil secluded spot then this property ticks all the boxes.Tucked away in a beautiful position 5 minutes from the village of Hartland. You could spend hours just sitting watching the wildlife right outside. Easy access to tourist spots and the coastal path. Highly recommended
