1/2

Idyllic farm setting with panoramic views over the sea and hills of Exmoor from each of the three individually sited holiday caravans. All fully equipped, sleep six caravans in their own gardens with parking next to the van. Enjoy the tranquillity of Lydford Farm and sit back and take in the views. A small shop on the farm offers freshly baked croissants, pain au chocolat and baguettes every morning along with a range of locally sourced jams, meats and drinks for you to choose from. Abundant wildlife - sea birds, buzzards, badgers, porpoises as well as the farm hens and geese, ponies and llamas, guinea pigs and cats.

Local attractions

A private footpath leads you 500m from the site down to Watermouth Castle and a bus stop. Crossing over the road you are in the picturesque Watermouth Harbour and on the SW Coastal Footpath. The Sawmills pub is less than a half mile along the road and superb food restaurant Hele Billies two miles the other way. Combe Martin(with its amazing rock pools and delicious deli) and Ilfracombe (with the world famous Verity sculpture set in the striking harbour, Tunnels Beaches, outstanding fish restaurant Espresso, Michelin rated Gendarmerie and Damien Hirst's cafe) - are both a short drive away. The Tarka Trail offers miles of traffic free cycling. Sandy beaches of Woolacombe and Saunton Sands are good for surfing and walking. Lynton and Lynmouth are good days out with Watersmeet and Exmoor for its wonderful views. For art lovers Broomhill Sculpture Gardens are close by but North Devon abounds with family attractions - Watermouth Castle, the Big Sheep, Tunnels Beaches, Exmoor Zoo and Combe Martin Wildlife Park to name but a few. Garden lovers can pick from Rosemoor, Marwood Gardens, Hartland Abbey Gardens and Knightshayes - all offering a great day out.
