Barnstaple, Devon

4

Heddon Bothy is a rustic accommodation located in the serene Heddon Valley, Barnstaple, Devon, South West England, designed to accommodate up to four guests. This simple hideaway is ideal for adventurers seeking a genuine escape into nature, as it requires visitors to bring their own cooking equipment for an 'indoor camping' experience. The bothy offers a unique opportunity to disconnect from modern conveniences and immerse oneself in the natural surroundings.

Guests can step out of the bothy and immediately access miles of stunning hiking trails, including the renowned South West Coast Path. This proximity to nature allows for exploration along the winding river, leading to Heddon’s Mouth pebble beach, where visitors can enjoy the scenic beauty of the coastline. For those seeking a more exhilarating adventure, the valley walls offer opportunities for climbing, rewarding daring explorers with breathtaking panoramic views from the cliffs.

After a day of outdoor activities, guests can unwind at the nearby Hunter's Inn Hotel, a welcoming pub just a short distance downhill from the bothy. This local establishment provides a cozy atmosphere to relax and reflect on the day's adventures. Additionally, the surrounding area of Exmoor National Park invites further exploration, showcasing its diverse landscapes and wildlife.

Exmoor National Park is also recognized as an International Dark Sky Reserve, making it an exceptional location for stargazing. On clear nights, visitors can marvel at the vastness of the night sky, experiencing some of the best celestial views available. This combination of adventure and tranquility makes Heddon Bothy a compelling destination for those looking to connect with nature while enjoying the comforts of a secluded retreat.
