Combe Martin Beaches — Attraction in North Devon

It's part of the excitement even but with a child it's very different. Lovely place and I would guess it's brilliant in the...

Beautiful!! Make sure you have a chair or something to sit on as it's very rocky /stony, not sandy like some of the surrounding beaches. Plenty of little places to find food or drinks. Pub right by the beach and a fish and chip shop along the road. Surf shops where you can hire boards, SUPs, or kayaks! Unfortunately, we couldn't have the kayak we'd reserved as the conditions were a bit too choppy! That suited me as I'm a bit of a fair weather sailor. Didn't leave until 9pm. Watched the sun going down after a perfect,...
