Our main provision for Bideford is daily kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding on the River Torridge. We operate daily between Little America (LA) and Kingsley Steps / Bank End on the Quay.
We are an independent, family run shop. We specialise in unique gifts, homewares and handmade jewellery, inspired by our beautiful countryside and coastal surrounding us. Where possible we like to source our products from small UK based companies, with many of these items handmade.
