Fairy Cross is a small village in the parish of Alwington situated west of Bideford along the Atlantic Highway (A39). It shares local amenities with nearby Bucks Cross, Hartland, Woolsery and Bideford.
Fairy Cross has an active village hall built in 1933 and it’s regularly used for all manner of activities including dances, concerts, weddings, coffee mornings, and barbecues. Other buildings of note are the Methodist Chapel, which celebrated its centenary in 1997, and the old Alms Houses at Ford. Fairy Cross also has two unique structures which stand proud on each side of the Atlantic Highway. They are, perhaps, the most ornate bus stops in the whole UK?
Sitting astride the Atlantic Highway (A39), Fairy Cross is well served by the main feeder route across the region leading to Wadebridge in Cornwall to the south-west and to the M5 by Tiverton in the east. A bus service provides access to North Devon’s ‘capital’, Barnstaple. Bus users can also reach Westward Ho!, Bideford, Braunton, Appledore, Croyde, Okehampton, Holsworthy, Great Torrington, Hartland and Ilfracombe.
Directions
From Bideford Quay proceed in the direction of Northam taking the left hand turning at the Heywooad roundabout. Proceed along the North Devon Link Road passing straight over at the Abbotsham Cross roundabout. After a further mile or so as you come into Fairy Cross, Keepers Cottage will be situated on your left hand side clearly displaying a For Sale board and nameplate.
