Nine years ago we first visited Lee Bay with our dogs,
Bonny, Rudolph, and Douglas, and loved it! So much so, that we now have our own cottage close by, and we love that too! Most
importantly, so do our dogs!
Dovecote is situated midway between Lee Bay and Ilfracombe
town with it's picturesque harbour, range of restaurants, pubs, shops, and the famous Tunnels Beach. The cottage nestles
in the peaceful Slade Valley, a semi-rural area, directly opposite the Cairn Nature Reserve and reservoirs, which provides
lovely walks and access to National Cycle route No 27.
Other walks from the door include access to the Toors, The Tarka
Trail, and the Coastal Path. The cottage is within easy reach of many beatiful areas and attractions, including Exmoor, the
surfing beaches of Saunton, Croyde, and Woolacombe.There is live entertainment at Ilfracombe's contemporary Landmark Theatre.
The nearest large town Barnstaple is a 30 minute drive away.
