Milford holiday cottages

Milford cottages

Nestled at the tip of the Hartland Peninsula in north-west Devon, our Milford cottages are perfect for those seeking a bit of peace and quiet. A haven for walkers, this remote hamlet sits within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The South West Coast Path winds around the peninsula, rewarding walkers with dramatic coastal views. Inland, sun-dappled woodlands and valleys carpeted with flowers invite exploration. This rural idyll is little more than a scattering of buildings set amid woodlands, streams and quiet country lanes, making it ideal for dog-friendly holidays, and for families, couples and groups that love the great outdoors. Hartland Village is packed with history, heritage and shops, including local arts and crafts stores, while more amenities can be found in the nearby town of Bideford, 14 miles away.

With quaint villages, rugged coastline and numerous beauty spots, you’ll never be short of adventure staying at Milford on the Hartland Peninsula. Set within the hamlet, Docton Mill Gardens and Tea Room is perfect for an indulgent cream tea and a wander around the lush gardens. Just down the road is the Speke’s Mill waterfall, the highest and most impressive waterfall on the peninsula. Milford is well located to explore the region’s attractions, including the picturesque village of Clovelly, which is famously car-free, Hartland Abbey and Hartland Quay, where you can visit the Shipwreck and Smuggling Museum, all within 6 miles. Offshore, Lundy Island has an array of rare and spectacular wildlife, including comical puffins; ferries depart from Bideford.
