Glorious North Devon - England
Coach Tours - 8 Days

Tour Highlights
• Exmoor • Lynton and Lynmouth • Barnstaple • Dunster • Exmoor National Park
• Minehead • Bideford • Appledore

Set amid the dramatic coastline, with marvellous sea views and magnificent surrounding countryside, it is easy to see why Ilfracombe is such a popular touring centre. Built around its ancient harbour, and nestling snugly into the breathtaking Atlantic coast with a vast expanse of golden sands, Ilfracombe was simply made for holidays. Explore the narrow lanes leading down to the harbour, the fascinating craft shops, famous beach tunnels and excellent shopping centre, and discover the lush rolling Devon countryside and the wild beauty of Exmoor on our included excursion programme.

Glorious North Devon - Your Excursions
FULL DAY
A lovely full day excursion taking-in the enchanting North Devon Coast, Exmoor and ‘Doone Country’ - the landscape that inspired the classic novel ‘Lorna Doone’.We visit the unspoiled medieval village of Dunster, dominated by its romantic castle and once described as ‘a perfect relic of feudal times’. Then it’s on to Simonsbath, Minehead and the lovely twin towns of Lynton and Lynmouth, set one above the other and linked by a cliff railway.
HALF DAY
An extended half day excursion to Bideford and Appledore. This morning we head to the historic port of Bideford, across bridge that spans the River Torridge, to the busy quay. There is time to explore the narrow streets before following the estuary to the pretty village of Appledore, located where the Rivers Taw and Torridge meet.
