Bideford

Bideford has a strong historical past as a trade link for North Devon.

The Bideford Port is celebrated as the prestigious property of the great Grenville family, who aided in Bideford’s success as a flourishing trade centre for the New World. The town’s prided bridge is nearly 700 ft. long, has 24 arches and features some original 15th century stonework.

Today Bideford is more of a transit spot for tourists who are coming to explore the area or taking a boat to Lundy Island.

• If you are to spend some time, it is recommended to head down to the old shipbuilding port of Appledore. This is a peaceful little place with some good old pubs to visit.
