A Georgian country house set in 7 hilltop acres with lovely views over the Torridge Estuary to Lundy Island.

King-size beds, breakfasts by a log fire, a garden room bar with library, maps and a warm welcome await our guests. Breakfast is served in the drawing room where a log fire burns on dewy early mornings, and the view from the window stretches from Hartland Point to Lundy Island over the little white town of Bideford. Food is freshly prepared using home produced and locally sourced ingredients: fruit from the garden, home made yoghurt and prize-winning local meats. Please tell us if you follow a special diet.

We can help you organise cycling on the Tarka Trail, cliff walking, surfing, canoeing, and other water sports. There is a different beach for each day of your holiday within easy reach; Dartmoor and Exmoor to explore, gardens at RHS Rosemoor and Tapeley as well as the fishing villages of Clovelly and Appledore.

Whether you choose a traditional pub like our "local" Westleigh Inn, or speciality seafood at Instow - eating in North Devon is reassuringly inexpensive. Let us know what you like and we'll provide a gastronomic tour; everything is close at hand.

The Pines is a non-smoking establishment. Pets are welcome by arrangement.

Family suites and cottages are available and children over 9 years are welcome.
