4 Situation West Woodlands is set in North Devon countryside in a peaceful and secluded location with a high level of privacy. The nearby villages of Alverdiscott and Newton Tracey provide day to day facilities, whilst the market town of Barnstaple (approx. 7 miles) provides a comprehensive range of retailers and interesting attractions including the beautifully restored Pannier Market and adjoining Butchers Row. The countryside is a major draw for people choosing to move to the area or visit the area and West Woodlands falls within the UNESCO designated North Devon Biosphere. This scheme aims to protect the biological and cultural diversity of the area whilst promoting sustainable economic development. To the north is the glorious North Devon coastline which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has beautiful sandy beaches at Saunton, Croyde Bay and Woolacombe. Inland is beautiful, unspoilt countryside to explore, much of it within the Exmoor National Park. To the North West is Instow, on the Rivers Taw and Torridge, with stunning views out to sea and over to Appledore. Instow is also on the Tarka Trail which is part of the National Cycle Network and the Devon Coast to Coast Cycle Route.
