I had a great time!

Sandymouth Surf School – www.sandymouthsurfschool.co.uk

Based at one of the National Trusts top ten beaches in the UK, Sandymouth Surf School offers group and individual lessons to surfers of all standards. Their excellent (and very patient!) instructors offer either half or full day lessons and the café at the top of the hill will warm you up with a hot chocolate at the end of the day – if you have enough strength left in your arms to lift the cup!

The Ultimate Adventure Centre – www.theultimatehigh.com

This is a real one-stop-shop for outdoor pursuits fans with (amongst other things) Mountain Boarding, Coasteering, Kayaking, an amazing High Ropes course and even Ultimate Wipeout!

Cycle the Tarka Trail – www.devon.gov.uk/tarka_trail

Over 30 miles of the Tarka Trail between Braunton and Meeth is open to cyclists. The trail makes use of disused railway tracks which have been recovered and now provide a safe and fairly easy going route through largely unspoilt North Devon countryside.

Gooseham Barton Riding Stables

This BHS approved stables is approximately 20 minutes from Cheristow and caters for everyone from the complete beginner to the more experienced rider. Anything up to 3 hour hacks can be taken through lanes and across countryside with spectacular views of the coast and beyond. For something a little bit different, why not try riding Western style!
