Renowned for its beauty, the beach at Westward Ho! is just 4 miles away, and offers 2 miles of sandy beach, known as the Golden Bay, and is popular with surfers. Coastal and country walking, golf, surfing, fishing, horse riding and cycling are all on offer close by, and for family fun The Big Sheep and The Milky Way Adventure Park are not to be missed.
