The lodges range from 1 bedroom to 4 bedroom, and we understand the majority were built in the late 1980's/early 1990's with the remainder built between 2005-2007. There are 2 x 4 bed, 12 x 3 bed, 26 x 2 bed and 2 x 1bed Lodges.

Location
The property lies within the grounds of the Watermouth Bay area, near the village of Berrynarbor in north Devon.
The location benefits from a nearby mix of local village services in Berrynarbor, while the coastal resort town of Ilfracombe offers a broader range of retail, leisure and service amenities.
While there is no station directly at the site, the nearest mainline rail connection is from Barnstaple on the branch line linking southwards. From there onward connections offer access to Exeter and national rail services.
The site is accessed via the A399 linking the nearby coastal towns of Ilfracombe and Combe Martin on the north Devon coast. Regional road links from there provide access to the wider network toward Barnstaple, Exeter and the M5 corridor. The park frontage and access also lie adjacent to the grounds of Watermouth Castle.
The site lies within a woodland hillside environment overlooking Watermouth Bay and the north Devon coast, with access to beach walks, woodland trails and views across the coastline.
