There is ample parking at the top of the village and the village is a popular tourist destination with plenty of attractions, including the beautiful Lundy Bay, known for being the filming location of the hugely popular Doc Martin series.

A real home from home, such a beautiful cottage. The location was fantastic, about 20 meters from the harbour. A lovely welcome pack on arrival which we didn't expect - thank you xx Plenty of places to eat and a lovely pub too. So many places to visit not too far away. Yes food was probably a little on the expensive side, but so very, very good. A great fish and chip shop with cod and chips at £11, best I've ever had. A Co-op a little way up the bank for anything you can't get in the village. The only thing I would say is if you are big water drinkers the you might want to bring some bottled water, as the tap water is not great. Lots of walking up steep banks, fine for us but should be considered. Car park very reasonable £10.50 for 24 hours. Overall blooming fantastic and would 100% stay again.
