Town and Country - plenty to see and do in both

The principal town of North Devon with its Victorian Pannier market (Tuesdays and Fridays) reflecting its glorious past when the railway brought many visitors to holiday here, Barnstaple still has much to offer.  The new bridge has removed much traffic from the town and you can wander down the Strand, see Queen Anne’s walk and the Old Custom house (now a restaurant) and the re-designed ‘Square’ with its clock tower and museum and Tourist Information Centre.  The Leisure and Tarka centres across the river have facilities for swimming and tennis. The High Street and Green Lanes cater for all tastes, as do the cafes and restaurants in the town.
