Ilfracombe via Berrynarbor and the coast path walk

A wonderfully varied self-guided walk which takes you past the old Chambercombe Manor mentioned in the Domesday Book and on through some typical Devon countryside and farms. The walk then passes through the lovely Sterridge valley with the picturesque village of Berrynarbor which is a regular winner of the Devon 'Best Kept Village' award, passing the grand church on the way to the coast path. The walk then follows the beautiful coastline passing the secluded Watermouth Cove and Watermouth Castle.
