Bridge Cottage, Peppercombe
Horns Cross, North Devon
Peppercombe is a steep and wooded valley, through which a stream runs down to a meadow before tumbling down to a beach in a fine waterfall. Luckily, there is a gently sloping path for you to reach the shore. The cliffs here are particularly dramatic, formed from an outcrop of red Triassic stone, with the whole magnificent North Devon coast line curving away in both directions and Lundy on the horizon. When this wild and lovely valley was acquired by the National Trust in 1988, we took on two of its buildings. Bridge Cottage, built in about 1830, stands in woods at the top of the combe. It had been empty for years, with a tarpaulin over its roof, but the walls of cob and stone were sound. The kitchen and parlour have stone-flagged floors and fireplaces, while the bedrooms follow the line of the roof and seem slightly too small for furniture, as cottage bedrooms should.
