Under the North Devon stars
In the heart of the idyllic North Devon countryside, under six miles from South Molton, and half an hour from Tiverton and the M5,
Ducks Paddle is off the beaten track, unspoilt and secluded, but still easily accessible.
The pace of life here is as relaxed as you want it to be, situated on an oak lined lane that was the old route from East Worlington, over Meshaw Moor, to South Molton for centuries,
with no near neighbours, Ducks' is the most peaceful of settings.
With views of Exmoor and rolling Devon hills, it is a very special place that works its' magic on all who visit.
Less than a 1/4 of a mile away is Meshaw Moor Nature Reserve, and then pop over to the simply sublime inn, The Grove in Kings Nympton, which is about ten minutes drive away,
or the excellent Mitre in Witheridge, about eight minutes drive.
Our position midway between the North Devon and South Devon coasts makes us an excellent base to explore the stunning Devon countryside. Exmoor, Lynton & Lynmouth to the north, the vibrant City of Exeter and seaside town Exmouth to the east, the ancient port of Bideford and the North Cornish town of Bude,
as well as the super beaches of Woolacombe and Saunton Sands to the west, and the glowering Dartmoor,
and the market town of Okehampton to the south.
Because of the sparsely populated nature of the area all the towns, and several villages and hamlets, host myriad events, such as fairs and festivals; music, food & drink are always to the fore and showcase local makers and producers and artists as well as those from further afield.
We welcome single travellers, and small groups at our discretion,
to that end, to try to keep it simple, we are offering a flat £7 per person charge per night before the Wanderlust membership fee:
We have a licence to welcome campers via Wanderlust, this allows us to open where we would not be able to due to council guidelines.
