The Burrows
The Burrows is situated in a residential part of Northam and is just minutes by car from Appledore quayside. The property’s accommodation is on the first floor and comprises of twin and double bedrooms to sleep four people and a bathroom with bath and shower attachment. The living/diing room has a smart TV and a comfortable sofa bed perfect for a 5th guest. The kitchen is fully equipped incuding a coffee machine for that perfect morning brew. Keen surfers? Well, as you walk in the front door there is a small entrance hall with a cupboard tall enough to stand several surfboards for safe keeping when not in use.
Northam is a small market town with various amenities just north of Bideford, there is plenty to see and do with a lovely river front, and port, which was once Britain’s third largest. Beaches, such as Westward Ho! and Instow are firm favourites locally, and are within easy reach by car and the South West Coastal Path is a must for keen walkers and runners as is the popular Tarka Trail, which stretches for 180 miles and can be accessed close by. It provides the unique opportunity to follow a disused railway line by foot or bicycle, allowing you to enjoy some of Devon’s finest countryside and river views whilst enjoy various treats along the way through Instow, Fremington Quay and onto Barnstaple, North Devon’s historic regional centre. Swimming, surfing, canoeing and other outdoor activities are available at nearby Skern Lodge, an outdoor activity centre. For a day with a difference why not take a trip across to Lundy Island? With regular trips from Bideford, you can enjoy the home to England’s first statutory Marine Nature Reserve, due to its unique flora and fauna. Measuring just 3 miles by ¾ mile, this entire island has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
Westward Ho!, the nearest seaside village offers an array of amenities including some fascinating curiosity shops and a range of restaurants and cafés, and if golf is your thing then be sure to visit the Royal North Devon Club which was founded in 1864 and is the oldest golf course in England!
Other popular top attractions include, The Big Sheep amusement farm park and if you fancy some high ropes, wall climbing, surfing or even a spot of coasteering, The Ultimate Adventure Centre is the place to visit! The beaches are a main attraction for many with surfer-friendly Westward Ho! and slightly further afield, award winning Saunton Sands, Woolacombe and Croyde are also a must for your itinerary. Being very close to the A39 Atlantic Highway, Bideford is conveniently located for day trips to other beautiful places such as Exmoor National Park with stunning dark skies for great star gazing and locations such as Clovelly, Hartland and North Cornwall. Beach 1½ miles.
