Wildlife and Nature Within The Grounds

Wildlife and Nature Within The Grounds

For breathtaking coastal views, Westward Living Holiday cottages in North Devon is your best bet for short breaks or longer stays. With 60 acres of private coastal grounds packed with wildlife, flora and fauna there are plenty of beautiful natural treasures to discover. The grounds at Westward Living are very special, they are in the UNESCO Biosphere and have been given the official status as an AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). In the summer months, you may be lucky enough to spot porpoises in the bay; we also have a resident family of cheeky foxes and roe deer who may pose for photos. Enthusiastic nature detectives are welcome to borrow our bird spotting telescope and binoculars during their stay.

There are so many wonderful walks to enjoy from our grounds and we probably have some of the best sunset picnic spots in the whole of Devon.

Westward Living truly offers something for everyone. Whether you’re drawn to the rugged coastline of North Devon or the charming villages of Instow, Appledore and Westward Ho!, our collection of self catering holiday cottages here provide a perfect base for exploration and relaxation. From luxurious retreats with modern amenities to unique accommodations steeped in history, there’s a Devon holiday cottage to suit every taste and budget.
