SITUATION & AMENITIES The location is excellent, being only a few hundred metres from the very heart of the town centre and High Street, yet within a stones' throw of Rock Park and the Tarka Trail. All the towns amenities are within easy level walking distance, being located just off the Square. The Bus Station is not far, and there is a branch line Railway Station providing a service to Exeter, where the main intercity service can be joined. Barnstaple is North Devon's regional centre, and as such, houses the areas main business, commercial, leisure and shopping venues, as well as the renowned Pannier Market. At Barnstaple, there is access via the A361 North Devon Link Road to Junction 27 of the M5 Motorway at Tiverton, where Tiverton Parkway also provides rail access to London (Paddington) in about 2 hours. The property is within about half an hours drive of the safe, sandy, surfing beaches of Croyde, Putsborough, Saunton (also with its sought after golf club) and Woolacombe. Exmoor is a similar distance, as is the Cornish border. There is access nearby to the Tarka Trail, ideal for both cyclists and walkers alike. We understand that the ever-changing views over the River Taw include some wonderful sunsets.
