Spindrift Cottage is a roomy wing of a bungalow near delightful Berrynarbor and makes a perfect base to explore North Devon. Berrynarbor has a shop a mile away, while Combe Martin and Ilfracombe with their cafes, restaurants and more shops are a short drive east and west of the cottage. Spindrift is all on one level and has a spacious living area with patio doors out to a lawned garden with a barbecue and outside table ideal for al fresco dining on warm nights. The enclosed garden makes it perfect for dogs. The well-known Grade II listed Pack O’ Cards Inn looks over Combe Martin beach and the village also has a general store/post office. Combe Martin is well known for its Wildlife and Dinosaur Park; a 28-acre attraction that has a passion for encouraging respect for the natural world. As well as lions, wolves, sea lions, monkeys, wallabies, exotic birds and more, the park is well known for its life-sized animatronic dinosaurs. The village consists of one long street that is wedged into the valley and runs for roughly one and a half miles. At one end of Combe Martin you can be in the countryside a stone's throw from Exmoor, at the other end you could be sat on the beach watching the crashing waves of the Atlantic. Ilfracombe has a delightful mix of Victorian and Regency architecture, pretty harbour, independent shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs. The harbour, with Damien Hirst’s infamous bronze statue Verity, and the Tunnels Beaches, are well worth a visit along with the award-winning Ilfracombe Aquarium, fascinating Ilfracombe Museum, Larkstone Leisure Park, Hele Cornmill and Chambercombe Manor - one of Britain's most haunted houses. Head inland to Exmoor National Park, which has the tallest tree in England, the highest cliffs in England, almost 250 species of bird and over 1,000 different flowering plants and grasses, the highest number of wild red deer in England and wild native ponies, perfectly adapted to the upland conditions of Exmoor
