North Devon Does

15/10/2025

Next Monday it will be time for another 'good start to the week' guided walk. These two hour hikes are a chance to explore the local area and learn something new. So far this year we have surveyed for skylarks, explored the WWII features of Northam Burrows and strolled around the historic features of Westward Ho!

Next Monday 20th October we will meet at the visitor centre at 2pm for a walk around the coastal grasslands and common land of Northam Burrows to look at the history of the local area.

This event is free to attend and no pre booking is required but toll charges may apply if you wish to drive a vehicle onto Northam Burrows.

PIZZA OF THE WEEK: PEPPERONI 🔥🍕

Some flavours just make you stop and smile.
Our Pepperoni is one of them — smoky, gently spiced, and perfectly crisp at the edges. We make our own pepperoni crumb in-house so that as it cooks, the oils release into the tomato sauce, layering warmth and depth through every bite.

Each slice has that beautiful mix of spice, salt, and creaminess from the fior di latte mozzarella — all resting on our long-fermented dough, cooked hot and fast in the stone oven.

Enjoy 10% off all week with POTWPEP10 at checkout.
Dine in, collect, or order online for delivery in Westward Ho! and Northam — open 12:00–21:00 every day.

Hi all, unfortunately, the wind on Saturday is just too dangerous to run a market so we're going to have to cancel. We hope to return in November, see you then!
