Bayview Tower is a luxurious three-storey, Grade II-listed abode exquisitely located on North Devon’s breathtaking coastline, with an elevated position boasting panoramic sea views over the Bristol Channel in the wonderful Exmoor National Park.
Having once stayed in Lynton Cottages, the stunning view so inspired the author C.S Lewis, author of The Chronicles of Narnia, that he wrote in his journal, “The view from the balcony was beyond everything I have ever seen” (Lynton, 1925).
Set in one of the prettiest coastal locations in England, with opportunities to explore Exmoor National Park and its magnificent natural beauty, this picturesque Tower exudes style and character from top to bottom.
Perfect for couples or a family of four, the accommodation boasts very spacious bedrooms and an open-plan living space with free super-fast WiFi throughout!
The kitchen is equipped with quality furniture and fixtures; additionally, a fridge/freezer and washing facilities are located in the utility room for convenience.
There is also a ground-floor cloakroom just off the utility room.
Relax together in the sitting area and feast your eyes on the stunning vistas out across the water that so moved C.S Lewis.
The rugged scenery envelops this fairy-tale property in a picture-postcard setting.
Bring the view even closer by throwing open the glass doors to the patio and enjoying the fabulous view from your private terrace.
The first floor is host to an impressive hand-carved super-king-size four-poster bed in a room overlooking the bay, with an en-suite bathroom.
On the second level, you will find another luxurious super-king-size bed in a light and airy room with beautiful exposed beams.
From here, you can step out onto the balcony and enjoy more of the delightful seascapes from a seated position that catches the late afternoon sun.
Lynton offers shops, pubs, and cafés galore, as well as art galleries and craft shops, a wide variety of outdoor pursuits, and spectacular walks for all abilities in some of the most beautiful surroundings in the UK.
The beach and picturesque coastal town of Lynmouth can be easily accessed on foot from the cottage (no need to move the car!) by using the historic funicular cliff railway, which is the highest and steepest totally water-powered railway in the world!
The terminal for this exciting and unusual form of transport is situated just a five-minute walk from the Tower, so you can easily enjoy everything that the two towns have to offer.
Why not set off from the Tower along the beautiful South West Coast Path to the magnificent Valley of Rocks, hire kayaks, go horse riding in Exmoor, visit Exmoor Zoo, or travel on the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway?
Little ones will also enjoy the Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park and the nearby sandy beaches of Ilfracombe and Woolacombe—just a few ideas of the many things to see and do in and around this charming area of North Devon.
Enjoy your perfect slice of Devon with a stay at Bayview Tower.
