Holiday cottages and self-catering accommodation in Woody Bay
A steep climb down a zig-zag path takes you to idyllic Woody Bay, a little slice of the North Devon coast which makes you feel like you’ve been transported to a peaceful, exotic location! Wander down to the beach from your Woody Bay cottage and find the waterfall which tumbles down from the wooded cliff onto the rocks below. The shingle beach is studded with rocks and hugged by leafy cliffs, making it a scenic and interesting spot to visit. Take a wild dip in the Victorian bathing pool which is filled by the tide, a vestige of attempts to transform Woody Bay into a holiday resort. Luckily for today’s visitors, the bay remains a peaceful place, off the main tourist trail.
Close to the beach is Woody Bay Station, home to the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway, where you can hop onboard a steam train for a 2-mile return trip, taking in the beautiful Exmoor views as you go. From your base in one of our Woody Bay holiday cottages, you can explore west to Watermouth (with its fantastic family attraction, Watermouth Castle), Combe Martin with its wildlife and dinosaur park, and further to Ilfracombe and the beaches of Woolacombe and Croyde. To the east, Valley of Rocks and the towns of Lynton and Lynmouth are also close by (within 2.5 miles).
Take your pick of our self-catering cottages in Woody Bay, and the whole of Exmoor is yours to discover.
