Clovelly (Village)
Clovelly is a little village clinging to a wooded 400-foot cliff, west of Bideford. There is no traffic on its tumbling, cobbled street. Flower-strewn cottages line the descent to the seashore beside the tiny harbour and lifeboat station. Despite the peaceful atmosphere there is much to do - shops, craft workshops, two museums, an excellent introductory A/V show and the famous donkeys. The modern history of Clovelly started with the acquisition of Clovelly Estate by the Hamlyn family from the Cary´s in 1738. The Cary´s had lived in the village for seven generations. Since then Hamlyn and Clovelly have been synonymous, with the ownership of the estate still being in the family.
