Local Information

Watersmeet

Where the Lyn rivers meet is a lovely spot for sketching, just watching the birds and animals or having a cream tea at the National Trust house. A 45 minute walk from Lynmouth takes you through the stunning wooded river valley which is one of the deepest in England. A shorter walk is from the car park on Watersmeet Road. There are beautiful waterfalls and the whole area is a walker's paradise.

Cliff Railway

No family trip to the picturesque towns of Lynton and Lynmouth in North Devon would be complete without a ride on the famous cliff railway. This water-powered funicular railway opened in 1890 and there are amazing views across Lynmouth Bay.

Valley of Rocks

The Valley of the Rocks or The Valley of Rocks is a dry valley that runs parallel to the coast It is a popular tourist destination, noted for its herd of feral goats, and for its geology, having good exposures of the Lynton Beds that are among the oldest Devonian rocks in north Devon and are highly fossiliferous. A description cannot do justice to this place of outstanding natural beauty.

Woody Bay - part of the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway

Originally opened in 1898, and closed in 1935; what you can see today at Woody Bay is just the beginning of an exciting project to rebuild one of the world's most famous and picturesque narrow gauge railways; the legendary Lynton & Barnstaple Railway. A lovely few hours out with delicious teas.
