Walking-North-Devon, Exmoor & South West Coast Path

May is a fabulous month for Walking in North Devon & Exmoor – The Macmillan Way West and Tarka Trail, both pass the entrance to Huxtable Farm, so we get quite a few staying over night and we always enjoying hearing about everyone’s adventures! Then there’s the South West Coast Path (Raynor Winn’s memoir, ‘The Salt Path’ film in cinemas 30th May) ; with the stunning sandy beaches of Woolacombe, Saunton & Westward Ho! and Croyde beach, one of the best surfing beaches in the UK. The two points, either end of Woolacombe beach, Baggy Point and Morte Point are both stunning to walk, with views out to Lundy Island – a wildlife haven to visit and for a chance to swim with seals!

If you enjoy a walk in the countryside, Huxtable Farm’s Devon Wildlife farm trail has beautiful wild flowers and foliage e..g. bluebells and wild garlic, to enjoy in its varied habitats; woodland, pasture, pond, bracken slope and hedges. To make it even more interesting we also have a ‘Treasure Trail’ for you to enjoy!

With so much to do in the garden at this time of year it’s always great to have a break and visit RHS Rosemoor Gardens and see what the experts are doing and get inspiration. Other glorious Gardens of North Devon include Castle Hill Gardens (just down the road from Huxtable Farm) looks fabulous this month with it’s camellias in flower as does Marwood Hill Garden with it’s beautiful wisteria archway.
