Very close to the quaint twin towns of Lynton and Lynmouth, Woodlands is peaceful, surrounded by nature and simply the perfect place for couples to retreat. This beautiful detached Victorian property was originally built in 1882 for a wealthy London gentleman and his family. The house has enjoyed a very interesting history including ownership by the Church, a private school for evacuees in the WW2, a hotel in the 1960s.
Woodlands is a 4.5* rated Fully Licenced Bed and Breakfast with 3 contemporary high standard first floor bedrooms with wet rooms. Just a ten minute walk from Lynton, it is peaceful, quiet, relaxed and friendly. Private parking is free. Woodlands is very popular with walkers wishing to explore the many delights that Exmoor and the North Devon coastline has to offer.
The famous Valley of Rocks, beautiful Watersmeet (as featured by Julia Bradbury's walks on TV), The South West Coast Path, Lee Bay, Woody Bay, Heddons Mouth, The Tarka Trail, The Coleridge Way and The Two Moors Way are all accessible from our doorstep so you don't need to use the car again once you've arrived!

Services
As well as being joint owner of Woodlands with Steve, Lesley is a health and fitness professional and is a fully qualified personal trainer and sports massage therapist.
She is also passionate about healthy eating and, as an independent Natural Juice Therapist, encourages and demonstrates to people how to include nutritious juices and smoothies as part of a healthy lifestyle.
This is why the highly acclaimed Woodlands breakfast menu (check it out!) is no ordinary B&B affair.
Lesley is also a keen hiker and Nordic Walker instructor and is very knowledgeable about the fantastic local Exmoor walks, so whatever type or length of walk you are looking for be it coastal, river, woodland or moorland (or a combination of all!), ask Lesley and she will find the perfect walk for you and massage your aching muscles afterwards!

The North Devon coastline is beautiful and very rugged and the area in which Lynton and Lynmouth is located is especially hilly, hence it's Victorian name of "Little Switzerland".
It is a wonderful place to spend a holiday yet for those suffering from cardiac and or respiratory issues, the general topography may prove challenging.
Our beautiful house is located on the side of a hill overlooking the West Lyn River valley.
We are regretfully unable to accommodate visitor parking on our driveway but our car park, located opposite the house has room for up to seven cars.
