Very steep, cliff-side village - cobbled streets, cosy cottages, atmospheric pubs and beautiful little harbour and pebble beach. Like stepping back in time - fantastic all year round.
My favourite day out is a walk down to Clovelly harbour and a visit to the Red Lion then on to my absolute favourite pub, The Old Smithy at Welcombe for supper. Great food, fantastic atmosphere, a great couple running this freehouse and, if your really lucky, regular live music. Or if not, try the jukebox, a turntable and an old suitcase full of LPs! Love it!
