Bullens Rock is peaceful & idyllic!This apartment feels grand, with its high ceilings, space and the most beautiful views of the sea. It is tastefully decorated and furnished with everything you need. In a perfect location, 2 mins from the harbour where you will find Damien Hirst’s statue - ‘Verity’, restaurants and shops. There is also a Wetherspoons with a view 2 minutes in the other direction. Great location to visit surrounding areas, Barnstaple, Woolacombe, Puttsborough. Beautiful coastal walks from the apartment and lots of beautiful tea rooms serving freshly baked scones!This is a special apartment and I can’t wait to return!
