The Beaches of Devon - Heddon's Mouth
This map is part of the Ordnance Survey's Explorer series designed to replace the old Pathfinder map series. At 1:25,000 scale this detailed map shows a host of attractions including gardens which are open to the public, nature reserves and country parks as well as all official footpaths, bridleways, roads and lanes. Other facilities covered include: camping and caravan sites, picnic areas and viewpoints, selected places of interest, rights of way information for England and Wales, National Trail and Recreational Path routes, and selected tourist information. The series is aimed mainly at the experienced map user but can be used by tourists and locals alike.
Heddon's Mouth beach lies on the North Devon coast, roughly midway between Combe Martin and Lynmouth. Situated at the end of the Heddon Valley, this north facing beach consists largely of rocks and large pebbles, surrounded by spectacular cliffs. The beach is best approached by parking at the Hunter's Inn at Parracombe and walking the pleasant mile or so northwards along the valley floor.
