Romantic Places to visit

Clovelly Village, Bideford, Devon

Historic cliffside fishing village, tranquil atmosphere, wonderful views, just unforgettable.

Steep cobbled traffic-free street with donkeys and sledges for transport
Wonderful maritime ambience with stunning cliff top sea edge views
A tranquil atmosphere, yet with plenty to see and do

The little fishing village, 11 miles west of Bideford clings to a wooded 400 foot cliff. There is no traffic on its tumbling, cobbled street, only the donkeys and sledges that are used for moving provisions.

Explore at a wandering pace, take time to absorb the beautiful and suddenly revealed views, savour the atmosphere of a quiet community and end up on the seashore beside the tiny harbour and lifeboat station.
