The village offers local shops and convenience stores along with a number of café’s, pubs and restaurants and The Royal North Devon Golf Course nearby. With stunning coastal walks, panoramic views, and a vibrant atmosphere, Westward Ho! is one of North Devon’s choice coastal locations along with the nearby villages of Appledore, offering a rich maritime history, and Instow, a popular tourist hotspot.
