Oyster Shack Café

Highlight • Restaurant

Super nice little outdoor coffee hut that also does a variety of really nice looking seafood dishes like mussels, oysters, crab and lobster. Coffee and cakes were good, didn't eat on this occasion but will definitely try it out in the future, and add my thoughts here when I do.

Dog friendly (they do doggy icecream which I assume is ice cream for dogs).

Isley Marsh Nature Reserve

Highlight • Lake

This area of saltmarsh and intertidal mudflats on the Taw and Torridge estuary has become an important haven for birds such as teal, curlew, greenshank, dunlin, and spoonbills. The nature reserve is maintained by the RSPB.
