The scent of rain on warm stone and honeysuckle climbing the cottage walls — Vines Cottage feels like stepping into a quieter England, where birdsong outnumbers notifications and evenings stretch long and unhurried.

This is glamping for couples or small families who want comfort without the caravan park bustle. You're choosing between a cosy camping pod or a proper chalet, both a world away from canvas and groundsheets. WiFi's available if you need to check in with the outside world, and dog owners should ask ahead — there's often flexibility for well-behaved hounds. It's the sort of spot that suits a long weekend unwinding, gentle walks from the doorstep, and mornings with proper coffee watching the mist lift.

Expect a low-key, personal setup rather than rows of identical units. Campfires are worth checking about when you arrive — sometimes they're welcomed, sometimes not, depending on the season and conditions. The vibe here is tucked-away and homely, the kind of place you return to because it feels like a secret you're in on, not a postcode you Googled.

South West Coast Path (Section 9: Clovelly to Hartland Quay)

National Trails logoNational Trails

Tackles dramatic Devon cliffs with some of the steepest, most relentless ascents and descents on the entire South West Coast Path. Definitely not suitable for buggies or young children—exposed clifftop sections, narrow paths, and serious elevation changes throughout. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near cliff edges and livestock. Worth every lung-busting climb for spectacular Atlantic views, rugged coastline, hidden waterfalls at Speke's Mill Mouth, and the wild, remote beauty of Hartland Point—t

Hawker's Hut walk, North Cornwall

National Trust logoNational Trust

Circles a dramatic headland with spectacular clifftop views over Morwenstowe's wild coastline. Mostly level grass paths with one steep descent and climb to reach Hawker's Hut perched on the clifftop edge. Not suitable for buggies; manageable for steady older children but keep them close—sheer drops nearby. Dogs welcome on leads. Worth it for the literary connection (Reverend Hawker's writing retreat) and breathtaking Atlantic scenery.
