It lies 10 miles north-west of Barnstaple, near Woolacombe and Lee Bay, and is sited in a valley within the hilly sand dune land behind Morte Point, almost directly above Woolacombe. The parish population at the 2011 census was 1,637. Mortehoe can trace its origins back to the Domesday Book, and beyond. Always a farming community, in former years it was a base for smugglers and wreckers. Best route is via Barnstable to Braunton then to Mullacott Cross Roundabout - do not turn off the road and follow sat nav directions off this main route. M4/M5 or M3/Stonehenge (please note there can be a delay at the Stonehenge section). We are not far down the M5 and should it be busy, the northern coastal road provides a scenic and easy alternative. Heathrow - Mortehoe is 3hrs. Mortehoe has good transport links by bus, bike and taxi all from the center of the village. It is close to Ilfracombe, Lee, Croyde, Combe Martin, Exmoor, Hebdon Valley, Barnstable and so much else. It benefits from a quick drive to the main roads allowing easy access to all the key roads locally. ACTIVITIES *There are numerous activities and most are year round.
