These include a hotel, local shop, café. delicatessen, gallery, various public houses, restaurants, primary school, church and sailing club. Also close by is the quaint former fishing village of Appledore with its cobbled streets, fashionable galleries, cafes, eateries and popular quay.
Westward Ho! is a short drive away with sandy beach, Burrows Nature Park and North Devon golf course. The A39 Link Road is nearby and gives access to the regional centre of Barnstaple which is approximately 10 miles away offering the area's main business, commercial, entertainment and shopping venues.
