How to find Nampara Farm Cottages.
Leave the M5 motorway at junction 27 (Tiverton exit) follow the
signs to Barnstaple, then continue towards Bideford and Bude. 4
miles before Bude you will reach the village of Kilkhampton, carry
on through the village for ½ a mile (descending a hill) turn Right
at the signpost to Sandymouth. Continue through the small hamlet of
Stibb, after another ½ mile turn left again to Sandymouth Beach. We
are just down this road on the Right .
Nearby:
Nampara Farm Cottages are located
in the heart of the countryside, yet close to the sea. Just down
the road is the spectacular beach at Sandymouth which is
excellent for swimming or surfing and is patrolled by lifeguards
during the season. At low tide the beach stretches all the way
to Bude some three miles south with some amazing rock formations
along the way! There are plenty of rock pools and the abundant
sea-life will keep the children amused for hours.
Just to the north is another beach, Duckpool, which is
located at the end of the beautiful Coombe Valley. In addition
to the National Trust keeping the coast as nature intended,
there are also some lovely walks through woodlands and
countryside, inland, to the village of Kilkampton or along the
coast path to Morwenstow and the Cornwall/Devon border.
Around Bude:
"The Loveliest Peace of Cornwall" - the phrase aptly used to
describe this part of North Cornwall - was adopted many years
ago to surmise the special nature of the area. Sir John Betjeman
endorsed this by describing Bude as "the least rowdy modern
seaside town in Cornwall". Today, this is as appropriate as ever
it was.
The town was "born"
with the arrival, in 1819, of the Canal, built to carry
lime-rich sea sand to infertile, inland soils. However it was
not until the arrival of the railway (now sadly departed) that
Bude grew in size to become a popular Victorian resort. The town
therefore owes its existence to Holidaymakers and to this end
still provides a friendly Cornish welcome and boasts the top
Tourist Information Centre in the South West!
Famed for its beaches, Bude has a wealth of other assets.
Never too crowded, the town itself is divided by a magnificent
18-hole golf course and is flanked to the west by rolling
downland on the cliff-tops which provide some excellent short
walks as well as playing host to sporting activities such as
pitch and putt, cricket and some superb "championship" grass
tennis courts.
Views of Bude's beautiful
beaches
Within a few minutes drive of Bude are many more
exciting places to visit. Picturesque fishing villages like
Port Isaac and Port Quin with their narrow winding streets,
Boscastle's sheltered harbour and Tintagel's Arthurian
legend and quaint old Post Office. Beautiful countryside
walks with equally enchanting names such as the Valency
Valley, St. Nectan's Glen and the Rocky Valley. North of
Bude, Hartland and Clovelly are essential stops on most
visitors itinerary.
Situated close to the Cornwall/Devon border, Nampara Farm
Cottages are situated in an ideal location to explore this
beautiful part of the Westcountry
