Situated close to the centre of the picturesque village of Lynton, this spacious and well appointed character property is in an ideal location for getting together with family and friends and enjoying the very special environment of the Exmoor National Park and the spectacular coastal scenery in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Clifton House is in the heart of the conservation area of Lynton, just a short stroll away from the fabulous choice of craft shops, galleries, tea rooms and restaurants. The famous water powered cliff railway close by connects Lynton to its twin village of Lynmouth with its riverside walks, quayside pubs, restaurants and large manor greens overlooking the sea.  Leisure facilities in the twin villages includes tennis courts, bowls and a small cinema and the surrounding countryside offers a variety of country, river and coastal walks as well as opportunities for fishing and horse riding. The accommodation is laid out over 3 floors providing room for a large family or groups of friends in the main season or smaller parties at a discount in the mid and low season. An attractive terraced patio garden provides a wonderful outdoor space and includes a barbecue area with outdoor dining table and large gas barbecue. On the ground floor a very comfortable living room has ample comfy seating for all guests and a spacious very well equipped kitchen with adjoining dining room makes it easy to prepare special meals or get together over breakfast to plan the day ahead. Two spacious and attractive bedrooms and a bathroom can be found on the second floor, whilst the remaining three bedrooms - including a very spacious bedroom with king size bed, balcony and a separate shower room can be found on the first floor. Roadside parking is usually available close by. A parking permit can also be purchased for the local car park (approx. 400yds) from the Lynton and Lynmouth Tourist Information office (currently £20 p/w). Visitors can enjoy exploring this very special part of North Devon on foot, horseback or by car and Clifton House offers an ideal and very comfortable home from home to return to at the end of an active day. Originally owned by Bob Jones, who designed and engineered the famous Lynton & Lynmouth Cliff Railway, Clifton House is part of village history and could become part of your family history by offering great holiday memories.

The property is in an excellent location, with pubs, restaurants and good walks on the doorstep. The house was very comfortable and well equipped. The owners had very thoughtfully laid up the table for dinner on the day we arrived, along with providing a basket of goodies, including wine. We would happily stay there again, which says it all.

This is a lovely house in a great location, with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. There's a well stocked kitchen and lots of space for our large, diverse crowd to play and relax, and a range of games and books for rainy days.
