There has been a ferry here for many centuries, always providing a well used service. The ferry that runs today is community run and offers the chance to nip across theTaw and Torridge Estuary and explore both sides!
Great for when you really want to slow the pace of life - horse drawn narrowboat trips on the Grand Western Canal. Built in 1814, the canal is now a Local Nature Reserve, home to an abundance of wildlife including otters, dragonflies, kingfishers and swans. Sit back, relax and enjoy the last horse drawn barge in the South West.
Get up close to the local wildlife - birds, seals and dolphins - along some of England's most dramatic coastline.
Mid Devon Hire Boats & Moorings who supply a luxury 5 berth Narrowboat for holidays and short breaks on the Grand Western Canal within a Country Park and local nature reserve.
A day trip to Lundy Island to amble around its its pristine shoreline, 13th Century castle and lighthouse is a lovely way to spend the day. Cruise over on Lundy's own ship, the MS Oldenburg. Everything you need is on board: bar, buffet, shop and information centre. From Bideford and Ilfracombe the sailing time is under two hours.
