Garden
& Parking
Steps from the ground floor courtyard lead up to our fully enclosed, south-facing garden. The sheltered terraces make it an ideal space for outdoor dining.
Due to the age of the cottages in Irsha Street, there is no on-site parking. However, it is customary for residents to load/unload shopping and passengers outside the cottage before parking up.
Free on-street parking can often be found on nearby Torridge Road (25 yards away), which is linked via a small public footpath adjacent to the cottage. There are three Pay & Display car parks. Two are 160 yards away and the third is 800 yards away. All offer hourly, daily and weekly parking, and weekly tourist tickets can be purchased online giving you access to other Torridge District car parks.
