Exploring North Devon with your Dog
There is good to fantastic walking to be had in North Devon, which is why it is also the ideal place to bring the dog on holiday.
You can walk the coastal paths, across large expanses of sand and dunes, with plentiful supplies of driftwood, along and around large headlands. Or up and down hilly cliffs, passing inaccessible coves.
Walk one of the numerous old paths and high hedged lanes, crisscrossing the green North Devon countryside. Through valleys, open fields, passing old cob barns and cottages. Through centuries-old farms, passing calving barns. The smell and feel of rural farm life.
Or explore Exmoor and walk one of the many paths that run parallel to crystal clear streams and rivers, ideal for the dog to play in and splash around, especially on a hot summer’s day.

The walk can be a little arduous at times, with some steep steps. But there’s no rush. Have a break and let the dog have a drink. Take in the beautiful, tranquil scenery. You will pass stunning coves, one being Bennet’s cove, closer to Lee Bay, and a fine place to rest before the final slope.
When you reach Lee Bay visit the delightful Grampus Inn. Here you can sit in the spacious beer garden enjoying a refreshing drink with the dog! They also serve good grub.
