The West Country / Devon region


Bideford is one of the most historic towns in the West country; it's medieval bridge, still working quay, narrow streets and buildings are all steeped in history. As Charles Kingsley wrote in 1855 'All who have travelled through the delicious scenery of North Devon must need to know the little white town of Bideford'. Those words remain true today as this pretty town has retained much of its original character.
Situated on the river Torridge and nestled by rolling hills, the town is sheltered from the Atlantic force and enjoys a mild climate.
The Bideford area
Bideford is ideally situated just off the A39, The Atlantic Highway. Stretching between North Cornwall and North Devon, this road is a scenic delight and makes travelling easy to the many places of interest.
For the children, you could try 'The Big Sheep' in Bideford or 'The Milky Way' in Hartland both offering family fun in lovely settings. The historic town of Torrington with the Dartington Glass factory is worth visiting and from here you may like to cycle home along the Tarka trail following the river Torridge back to Bideford. There is a cycle hire shop beside the old railway station in Bideford if you forget to bring yours.
The pretty fishing villages of Appledore, Clovelly and Bucks Mill are charming and worth exploring but do wear some good walking shoes! Instow is where the sailing club resides and has a calm sanding beach away from the Atlantic surf of WestwardHo!
Not forgetting the surfers, there are numerous beaches stretching south from Westward Ho! towards Bude where you can even find a quiet spot in August! Famous Croyde and Woolacombe are now much more accessible from Bideford with the new Torridge bridge.
