The self-contained Hardwick Flat offers holiday accommodation for couples and small families in a semi-rural area largely made up of farmland. Yet the bustling Devonshire town of Barnstaple is just a short drive away and hosts all the amenities guests may need. Perhaps the biggest draw to the area aside from its lovely countryside is its beaches. Dozens of beaches can be easily reached from the flat including Woolacombe and Saunton Sands. Coastal walks are popular, as is rambling in Exmoor.
