The recent television adaptation of Jane Austen’s classic “Sense and Sensability” was filmed in the glorious and windswept North Devon coast in the south of England. This is a heritage coastline and the small town of Hartland is probably its wildest spot.

These rugged cliffs with sheer drops into the raging Atlantic Sea have been the site of many shipwreck and smuggling tales over the centuries, and today you’ll find some of the most breathtaking scenery of the entire 630 mile South West Coast Path.

For a breathtaking stroll try the three mile walk between Hartland Point and Hartland Quay, there is a car park at both locations. Allow about two hours for the walk, as the awesomely dramatic views will have you stopping and inhaling the magic and majestic views.
