Lovely holiday with a touch of Brend Hotel luxury at the
Royal & Fortescue Hotel in the centre of Barnstaple.
Lying on the River Taw, Barnstaple is the largest town in North Devon
with a history extending back to King Aethelstan. Once a major port,
Barnstaple is a thriving market town with a partly pedestrianised
centre, historic buildings, charming streets and alleys and a traditional
Pannier Market. The dramatic, rugged coastline of the North Devon
Coast, where the cliffs seem to dive in to the sea is quite stunning and
on a clear day you can see over to South Wales. The stunning Exmoor
National Park with its spectacular scenery is also close by with a host of
other terrific excursion destinations to explore in the region.
