Watermouth Harbour

Over the road from the Castle is Watermouth Harbour with its many sailing boats. The South West Coast footpath passes through the harbour and is the starting point for wonderful coastal walks in both directions.

Appledore

Appledore, a maze of quaint narrow streets and fisherman’s cottages with an abundance of art galleries and crafts shops to browse. Nearby, Westward Ho! Is a traditional seaside resort with sandy beaches, a long promenade and amusements.

Lynmouth

Joined by the famous cliff railway, Lynmouth, with its attractive harbour and Lynton with its superb views, make the ideal centres from which to explore Exmoor.

Hartland

Hartland is perhaps the wildest of all the Heritage Coastline. Sheer rugged cliffs hold many wreckers tales and offer magnificent views across to Lundy Island. The picturesque fishing village of Clovelly is a delight to explore with steep cobbled streets which lead down to a beautiful harbour.

Great Torrington

In the heart of Tarka country the ancient settlement of Great Torrington overlooks the River Torridge, whose banks form part of the Tarka Trail, unspoilt countryside to walk or cycle.
