Martinhoe Devon Map

About Martinhoe

Martinhoe commands a quiet dignity overlooking the rugged North Devon coastline. It lies 5.3 km west of Lynton (from Lynton: bearing 261°T, OS grid SS 667 486), and is situated north of Parracombe village. The air here often carries the tang of the sea, even from this inland perch, a whisper of the wild Exmoor National Park that enfolds it, its open skies a constant, shifting canvas. Ancient stone walls, weathered by countless seasons, trace the contours of fields that seem to have been shaped by a gentler hand than mere industry. The hamlet itself, a scattering of cottages and farmsteads, offers a profound stillness, a place where the loudest sound might be the bleating of sheep on a distant rise or the sigh of wind through the gorse. Sunlight, when it breaks through the coastal mists, can lend an almost ethereal glow to the landscape, highlighting the subtle greens and browns of the rolling hills.
