A real living village, Clovelly has withstood the onslaught of modernisation, making no concessions even to tourism as sledges deliver goods to the town centre. Experience a bygone era with Clovelly accommodation.
Back to the past
The village's biggest attraction is the cobblestone High Street which drops steeply down to the harbour and shingle beach. 16th Century cottages with colourful box-like windows complete the picture. Don't let the climb up dissuade you as shuttles transport visitors through a back road.
The award-winning Clovelly Visitor's Centre has an interesting exhibition on the village's history. You can visit the Kingsley Museum dedicated to writer Charles Kingsley.
Excursion destinations
The North Devon Coast Path is a long, scenic walk leading onto Hartland Quay, now in ruins owing to powerful Atlantic breakers. The Hartland Quay Museum merits a visit.
While at Clovelly Court Gardens, look for the restored Victorian glasshouses where peaches, nectarines and melons are ripened to perfection. Clovelly's harbour lends itself to angling, diving and boating.
