Holcombe Rogus Holidays

A holiday in Holcombe Rogus provides the perfect starting point for exploring the many attractions of Devon and Somerset. Holcombe Rogus is a charming little village in Devon just on the border of Somerset, and home to ‘perhaps the finest Tudor house in Devon – the manor house Holcombe Court. Spectacular as it is, Holcombe Rogus holiday makers have other fine architecture immediately on their doorstep, including the 15^th century All Saints church and its 16^th century Church House. Holcombe Rogus also sits near the Grand Western Canal, perfect for canal boat holidays. But if living on the water isn’t your style, there are log cabins, lime kiln cottages and holiday park lodges which will suit any family wanting self-catering holiday accommodation.

 

A Holcombe Rogus holiday can take you anywhere in the south-west of England. Family days out in Devon and Somerset include cycling on the Somerset Towpath, horse-riding at Exmoor National Park, a jousting tournament at Powderham Castle near Exeter, and day trips to Taunton, Tiverton, Barnstaple, Bridgwater and Yeovil. And while Holcombe Rogus is inland, within driving distance are numerous seaside holiday resorts: the north Devon coastal towns of Ilfracombe and Minehead; and the south Devon and Dorset beach holiday destinations of Exmouth, Branscombe and Lyme Regis.

 

Your Holcombe Rogus holiday home may be just minutes from the M5 motorway, but the village itself sits in tranquil countryside. You can explore the Somerset countryside and coast on the West Somerset Steam Railway, visit wildlife parks or the natural wildlife on offer in Exmoor National Park and Dartmoor National Park. There are plenty of other things to do nearby: visit Cheddar Caves and Gorge, the Seaquarium in Weston-super-Mare, treasure hunts, children’s play centres and countless horticultural gardens and historical sites for the quieter family holiday.
