traffic, the hamlet is set within a valley which provides protection from the
wind. Bantham beach, famous for its surfing, offers a range of watersport
lessons and equipment hire. Lifeguards are on duty in the summer months (from
May - September) and a no dog policy is in place from May - October but there
are plenty of walks around the sand dunes and along the riverside to walk with
your pooch!
The Sloop Inn, Bantham, "your local" serves up some of the best food in the
area, (make sure you leave some room for one of their fabulous desserts!)
There's also the Gastrobus, located by the beach which is open daily 10am - 5pm
serving up breakfast, snacks and pizzas!
The coastal path leading from Batham to the village of Thurlestone is a lovely
moderate 3 - mile walk and it's dog friendly! The Village Inn, Thurlestone, is
