Accommodation
If you would like us to help you with reserving accommodation, we can discuss your needs. We can make reservations on your behalf and you pay the accommodation provider directly when in North Devon. We specialise in staying with local artists in their own homes, or with people who are interested in the arts or the natural environment and who enjoy talking to you about these topics.

If you wish to reserve your own accommodation we can also put you in contact with local tourism officers who can help you through the process and to make your final choice.

Optional Extras / Extra fees
• Use of a hand-held GPS during your stay. Extra fee of £20 per 3-7 days
• Booking with a guide / local expert, to personally guide you on a special topic that you are interested in i.e. birdwatching on the estuary, wildflower hunting on the Burrows, beach rock pooling, art walks and painting. We can add this to your itinerary and will advise on Guide fees. We reserve this for you and you pay the Guide directly on the day
• Arts or environmental workshops and courses – we can reserve a space for you on a workshop or course as part of your itinerary. You pay the cost of the workshop directly to the provider when you take part. We will advise if pre-payment or a deposit is required
