Location
Sunnycliffe offers easy access to the charming village of Woolacombe, renowned for its magnificent golden sandy beach. This picturesque village is home to a variety of welcoming pubs, delightful restaurants, and a selection of independent shops. Recognized as one of the top family-friendly resorts in the UK, Woolacombe, nestled between Morte Point and Baggy Point, has something to offer every visitor. Activities range from enjoyable rounds of crazy golf to breathtaking coastal walks and the unique experience of horseback riding on the beach. For many, Woolacombe is synonymous with water sports, with surfing being the most popular choice.

During the day, Woolacombe exudes a laid-back atmosphere that transitions to a livelier scene in the evening, with live music performances in some of its bars. Another delightful option is Barricane Beach, adjacent to the main beach, where you can unwind, watch the sunset, and savour a traditional Sri Lankan curry from the beach café.

For those looking to explore beyond the beach, many holiday villages on the outskirts of Woolacombe offer activities such as pottery painting, and day visitors are warmly welcomed to join in the creative fun.
