Five Sunnyside is set back from the beautiful River Torridge in the lovely Devon town of Bideford. The charming Victorian cottage sleeps four people in two bedrooms and is perfect for couples, families or friends who want to squeeze as much into their holiday as possible. The cottage is on the quiet eastern side of the river, a short walk from Old Bideford Bridge over which lie shops, cafes, pubs and other amenities. The famous Tarka Trail and bike hire are within a few metres of the cottage, and the South West Coast Path is also easily accessible.
Bideford is perfect for lovers of adventure, food, and fun. It's where the Torridge and the Taw Rivers meet, so sailing, paddleboarding and kayaking are all readily accessible. Westward Ho!, Croyde Bay, Putsborough Sands and Woolacombe are all within a short drive, so there is lots of opportunity for surfing as well. Take a boat trip over to Lundy Island to see the puffins and other seabirds, or book a sightseeing boat tour for a different view of the beautiful North Devon coastline. Clovelly, Instow and Appledore are all uniquely charming and worth a visit. The beaches and villages of Hartland Bay are slightly further but well worth the effort.
Walking and cycling are year-round favourite ways to explore, especially with the fantastic Tarka Trail on the doorstep. The 180-mile route, 30 miles of which is traffic-free, loops in a figure of eight, going as far as Lynton and Exmoor National Park in the north and Okehampton and Dartmoor National Park to the south. From Bideford, you can cycle to Woolacombe Bay, Lynton and Lynmouth, Hartland Quay, Croyde Bay, and Braunton Burrows. The cottage has secure bike storage and is very cyclist-friendly.
Everything you could desire for a memorable stay is at your fingertips, whether it's Bideford's historic Victorian pannier market, a glorious stretch of sand, a stately home and garden, or a friendly country pub. Local attractions include The Big Sheep, the Cobbaton Combat Collection, Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park, and the Milky Way Adventure Park. Whether you're a first time visitor to Bideford, or it's a place to which you escape as frequently as possible, you'll find a warm welcome waiting at Five Sunnyside. It has a lovely, homely charm that appeals to guests of all ages, and characters and quirks that come with Victorian properties.
