Enjoy the North Devon Festival with a stay at Downe

June sees North Devon come alive with over 200 events taking place in 60 towns and villages as part of the eight annual North Devon Festival and what better place to stay than Downe Cottages on the Hartland Peninsula.

Festival events (Northdevonfestival.org) include a huge range of live music, dance, visual arts, literature, touring theatre and historical fairs as well as sport and leisure activities. So whether you are a couple seeking a bit of culture or a family wanting to keep the kids entertained you will find more than enough to do and see.

Downe, with its glorious sea views looking out to Lundy Island and the Atlantic, makes an ideal base for festival goers. It features eight beautiful self catering cottages: one three bedroom, two two bedroom and five one bedroom.

Adjoining the cottages and sharing the overall tranquillity of the site is the Downe Health Spa – the ideal place to relax and unwind after experiencing a selection of the festival’s many events.

A week’s stay in a one bedroom cottage in June costs from £630 and a four night short break from £420.
