RHS Rosemoor, which is only a few minutes away, provides a wonderful visitor attraction. Torrington's most famous Dartington Crystal has its own most fascinating visitor tour. The fishing village of Appledore with its quaint streets and pubs offers boat trips or visit Clovelly with its steep, stepped, cobbled streets which lead down to a pretty harbour. Golfers are also well catered for with excellent courses at Torrington, Westward Ho! and Saunton. Keen fisherman have an abundant choice of venues for both coarse and river fishing all within a 30 minute drive of the cottage.
