Barnstaple

The Yeo Dale Hotel is situated just a short walk from the centre of the North Devon market town of Barnstaple.

Barnstaple is the commercial centre of the region, combining sophisticated shopping with the bustling atmosphere of markets and speciality shops. The modern Green Lanes Shopping Centre compliments the traditional Pannier and Craft Markets held since 1855 in the Pannier Market Hall. Around every corner there are pretty little alleys and courtyards, as well as the unusual Butchers Row, a line of open fronted shops selling speciality foods from meat and fish to laver and traditional clotted cream.

The North Devon Leisure Centre offers a swimming pool, sports hall, squash courts, fully equipped gym and much more. Nearby the North Devon Karting Centre has 2 circuits of 200m and 400m and welcomes beginners and experts. The Portmore Golf Park just outside Barnstaple has two 9 hole courses and an undercover driving range.

For those who enjoy ten pin bowling, the Lets Go Superbowl can provide great family fun. Rock Park by the River Taw has tennis courts, bowling greens, play area, football and cricket pitches. Finally, the Queens Theatre provides year round entertainment including concerts, shows and plays.
