The Barnacle is tucked down a quiet lane, known locally as the Donkey Path, that leads straight to the beautiful sandy beaches of Outer and Inner Hope and the centre of this delightful Devon seaside fishing village. From here enjoy the wonderful cliff walks that abound in the area, idle the days away making sand castles and picnicking on one of the sandy beaches, indulge in serious cream teas in the local café, or enjoy a pint at the Hope and Anchor Inn. The property is a totally self-contained annexe at the rear of a large family home, and enjoys a private railed deck area in a sunny spot. This is a very comfortable base for walkers, a couple or small family.
