Westward Ho! to Chivenor via Appledore, Bideford, Instow, Fremlington, Barnstaple.
Flat paths and cycleways, much of it wheelchair accessible too.
SW Coast Path and Tarka Trail
This is a pretty if unspectacular easy estuary walk but the hard surface underfoot can be painful and feet can get very hot in warm weather. There are plenty of ice cream stops on the way if there is a need to cool down. For me the old boats buried in the mud at Appledore were a visual highlight but the bridge at Bideford run it close. The shoreline of Instow is very popular with visitors as the little beach is lovely and easily accesible to all.
My Rank: **
