LOCAL AREA: It’s All On Your Doorstep

The beauty of living at Highfields is that you have everything available within easy access, yet you are situated in a tucked away and private position, backing onto open fields.

Bickington

The local village of Bickington is within walking distance, and offers a range of amenities including convenience store/Post Office, hairdressers and village pub. There is also easy access to the Tarka Trail.

Barnstaple

The nearby regional centre of Barnstaple offers all the area’s main business, commercial and shopping venues, including an array of primary and secondary schools, as well as a college. There is a superb blend of high street retailers and independent shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes and a popular theatre. A particular feature of the town is the charming Pannier Market, with its wide range of local traders, and Butcher’s Row with its boutique shops and restaurants/cafes.

The Tarka Trail

The Tarka Trail consists of a 180 mile figure of 8 route that is easily accessible from Highfields, and traverses unspoilt countryside with dramatic sea cliffs and beautiful beaches. It includes the longest traffic free cycle route in the UK, and is superb for walking and cycling.

The South West Coastal Footpath

The South West Coastal Footpath is England’s longest waymarked footpath, and a national trail that stretches for some 630 miles from Minehead in Somerset along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall, and offers spectacular walks with stunning vistas of the breath-taking coastline.

Instow

The delightful nearby coastal village of Instow sits at the mouth of the estuary where the Rivers Taw and Torridge meet. It benefits from a delightful community and a sandy beach, cricket club, sailing club and superb pubs and restaurants, as well as a well-known local deli.

Appledore

The historic fisherman’s village of Appledore sits on the adjacent bank of the River Torridge and is renowned for its quaint cobbled streets, fisherman’s cottages and arts and crafts community. There is also a range of excellent dining opportunities, as well as a well-known local deli.

Surfing & Sandy Beaches

There are a range of spectacular sandy, surfing beaches within easy reach of Highfields, including at Westward Ho!, Saunton and Croyde. North Devon has recently being recognised as a ‘World Surfing Reserve’ (WSR), which is the only WSR in the UK and the only cold-water WSR in the world.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
