Chittlehampton is a traditional Devon village situated in the north of the county between Barnstaple and South Moulton. It was the first village where the Saxons settled during their 8th century invasion of Devon. At its heart is The Square, a wide-open space sloping upwards with the outline hardly having changed since that time.
The lovely church of St Hieritha was completely rebuilt between 1470 and 1520 on the site of the earlier cruciform structure, dominating the local skyline.
Although many licenced premises survived well into 19th century providing a place of refreshment and rest for the many pilgrims who came to the village, today there remains just one, but one which is extremely popular and serves lovely traditional pub fayre in a warm and friendly environment. The village is perfectly located for exploring North Devon and all its attractions such as Exmoor National Park with its magical night skies in Europe’s first ’Dark Sky Reserve’, the many rugged coastal towns and quaint villages such as Lynton & Lynmouth, Ilfracombe and the world-famous Clovelly Village with their awe-inspiring scenery. There are many family attractions such as the Big Sheep and Milky Way theme parks, Dartington Crystal Factory, Tapeley Park and the Royal Horticultural Society Garden, Rosemoor.
If stunning beaches are your thing then North Devon will leave you spoilt for choice with Saunton Sands, Woolacombe, Croyde and Westward Ho! The beaches are all within easy reach by car.
For a day with a difference why not take a trip across to Lundy Island, home to England’s first statutory Marine Nature Reserve due to its unique flora and fauna? Measuring just 3 miles by ¾ mile, this entire island has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The fantastic Southwest Coastal Path runs through the region’s rugged coastline and is perfect for walkers and view seekers offering 90 miles of stunning walks. The popular Tarka Trail can be accessed from the town centre providing the unique opportunity to follow a disused railway line on foot or by bicycle allowing you to enjoy some of Devon’s finest countryside and river scenery which will take you through Fremington Quay with its excellent café, Instow with its estuary beach and view towards the lovely fishing village of Appledore through to Bideford and beyond
