Tarka Trail

James May built a model railway line along the 10 miles of the Tarka Trail between Barnstaple and Bideford but failed to beat the record when the locos broke down. But you can cycle the ex-railway line very successfully - it's flat tarmac all the way with refreshments available at several way points. |next attraction|

Tarka Trail

There's a bicycle hire place on the platform of Barnstaple railway station and another at Bideford. This is a very pleasant way to spend a day even if you haven't been on a bike since you were twelve. |map|  |more things to do|
