Hummingbird House is heaven for children.

After spending days crabbing, rockpooling, kayaking or bodyboarding, children will simply adore chilling out in the games room filled with goodies such a table football.
Stroll to the lovely local pub (that specialises in local devon ales and ciders) or hop to the beach and try out windsurfing, kitesurfing, bodyboarding and paddle boarding.
