Town: Three miles from the beaches and coast of lovely Devon sits the village of Braunton, which has a bistro, pubs, cafes and shops. Visit Saunton Sands beach, tackle the South West Coast Path or try your hand at golfing. Over the estuary, the village of Instow has an attractive quayside which is home to a selection of pubs, as well as a sandy beach which makes a great spot for a family game or picnic taking in the views towards Appledore.
