The Shippen
The Shippen is a cosy cottage for two in Combe Martin, Devon, with EV charging nearby for electric car owners. Watermouth Castle is just 0.8 miles away, making this a good choice if you fancy a day at a theme park without much travelling.

Combe Martin beach is 1.3 miles off, though do note the water quality here is rated sufficient rather than excellent. The Combe Martin Museum and Hele Cornmill are both close by for a quieter afternoon, and when hunger strikes, Pack O'Cards and The Lime Kiln Cafe both hold five-star hygiene ratings. Barnstaple station is 8.8 miles away if you're arriving by train.
