Morte View is slap bang in the centre of the attractive village of Mortehoe, which sits on the hilltop overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It is a spacious two storey apartment with everything on the doorstep including a choice of shops, pubs and tea rooms and is within easy reach of spectacular coast and countryside walks. Mortehoe sits just inland from the rocky headland of Morte Point. The village earned a mention in the Domesday Book and offers a quiet holiday base to venture into the heart of North Devon. The apartment has a private entrance on the bottom floor with a spacious hall providing ample space for shoes and coats along with surfboards or up to four bikes giving you the chance to explore the county's many cycle paths. On the first floor there is a good sized lounge which opens into a dining area. Upstairs there are two attractive bedrooms served by a family bathroom. Both bedrooms look out over the village and have some sloping ceilings.
Mortehoe Heritage Centre recounts the area's rich maritime history. Mortehoe is the starting point for many scenic walks along this dramatic stretch of coastline. Just north of the village, and reached only on foot, is Rockham Beach lying at the base of the 100 foot cliff; an ideal location for a peaceful day on the sand. Another great beach nearby is Barricane Beach just on the outskirts of the village. It’s a sandy cove perfect for families with low ledges that are great for jumping off. There’s also the wonderful, but seasonal, Barricane Beach café, serving up the distinctly un-Devon flavours of Sri Lanka. A brisk walk or short drive takes you to Woolacombe, which has three miles of golden sands.
