Day 4: Clovelly*

Clovelly is a village like no other! This ancient fishing village clings to the 400-foot cliffside, and is famous for having no vehicles – just donkeys and sledges to help the locals make their way up and down the steep cobbled streets. Take your time and stroll leisurely down to the harbour where you'll find a pebble beach and clear waters to reward you!
On your way back up, perhaps take a break at one of the pubs for fresh local seafood or a cream tea, or you may prefer to take one of the local Land Rovers back to the top (extra charges payable locally, subject to availability).
