Situation & Amenities - Combe Martin is a popular coastal village, set in a fertile valley located where Exmoor National Park and the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty meet. The approach along the coastal road offers glimpses of stunning scenery. Combe Martin itself is an ideal centre for walking, and has the 630-mile South West Coastal Path going through it. The village offers a range of amenities including post office, school, pubs and local shops, etc, as well as bus services linking to other local centres, including Ilfracombe (which is approximately 10 minutes away and provides access to more extensive facilities including supermarkets). Other than Combe Martin beach itself, other local sandy surfing beaches include Croyde, Saunton (also with Championship Golf Course), Putsborough and Woolacombe, all within easy access. The regional centre of Barnstaple is about 13 miles away and houses the area’s main business, commercial, leisure and shopping venues, as well as live theatre and district hospital. At Barnstaple there is access to the North Devon Link Road, which leads on in a further 45 minutes or so to Jct.27 of the M5 Motorway and where Tiverton Parkway nearby offers fast service trains to London Paddington in just over 2 hours. The nearest international airports are at Bristol and Exeter.

The accommodation is bright and spacious, well presented and although some updating may be required, the kitchen and bathroom were both re-fitted about 10 years ago. The property is complemented by delightful and colourful well-established gardens, which are also well tended. These extend across the close to an additional area, which enjoys frontage to a tributary of the River Umber, which we understand is stocked with eel and trout.
