Amazing unhindered panoramic views along the SW coast path. This part is a great and easy walk as it's one of the few that are tarmac (much easier on the feet). Keep your eye out for the mountain goats, they're usually up the mountain looking down at you, silently, they seem to come down to the very bottom at sunset.

Nice tourist spot on the Devon coast, took the kids when on our holidays. They were not excited about the visit but when we got there they really enjoyed the trip. Amazing views over the Bristol channel and you can see Wales across the water. White lady rock was great for a climb and photo opportunity kids loved this part of the visit. Multiple carparks and toilets also a cafe. Well worth a visit

This was a beautiful spot. Some where to park the car (paid car park) and toilet facilities! You can go the hard route and climb over or the easy route along the coast, both beautiful views. Took our dog who loved it, and we also went down to the beach, which is harder to get to but very quiet and beautiful 😍

Loved every bit of it. There are a lot of said rocks to climb and a pathway in between offering breathtaking views of the nearby cliffs. We sat on the rocks and marvelled at the scenery for a good hour or so and couldn’t get enough. Plenty of parking spaces available in the 3 (I think) pay&display car parks nearby.

Breath taking place to go. I entered from Lynton and started the coastal path and did a loop round walk and finished at the small cafe by road entrance where there are small car parks and toilets.There are large feral goats wandering around. Wouldn't approach them. Our dog is old and needs a buggy when tired so coastal path was very up and down, doable but hard push in some places. Main valley has good paths and several benches to take in the view
