Westward Ho! beach; and a 15 minute drive to Barnstaple town centre.
There’s a whopping 35 acres of space to play with here, so plenty of scope to play games, take strolls around the lake or light up a barbecue or firepit to chat with pals. Plus the pub is just a short walk away! Dogs are welcome on site so feel free to bring them along for your Devon break here.
