Location
Lfracombe town offers a variety of independent shops, art galleries, restaurants and bars. The picturesque seafront and harbour area is home to artist Damien Hirst's ‘Verity’ statue at the harbour entrance. In addition is the exciting new water sports centre and café making the harbour a hive of activity.
North Devon has a wealth of simply stunning golden sand beaches and has long been a mecca for British surfers. The area has recently been declared a ‘world surfing reserve’, one of just 12 places on the planet along with Australia’s Golden Coast and Malibu in California.
