You could, if you want, arrive in Woolacombe and forget about your car during your entire stay! Everything you could want is on the doorstep. Groceries, clothing, bars, restaurants, surf equipment hire and a beautiful beach are all a few seconds from the doorstep. If you wanted to explore further afield then your car is the best bet. Use it to travel to Ilfracombe and hop on the ferry to Lundy Island, visit surrounding NAtional Trust properties, or follow the coastal road further south and see the craggy rocks, wild coastlines and ancient lighthouses that await.
