Month: March 2022

The Clovelly Community Kitchen organised an amazing fundraising last Thursday, 17th of March, where the residents of the village managed to raise a massive £2,054 in support of Ukraine.

Clovelly will be organising more events to raise money for Ukraine, so do follow Clovelly Village and the Clovelly Community Kitchen on Instagram for updates.

Thank you Bysha King, an old-time Clovellian, for capturing the event so beautifully- it is lovely to see our community come together in support of such a worthy cause.

We want to thank DevonLive for this article about the energy efficiency of our village: “Clovelly proves that even the most hard-to-treat properties can be insulated”.

Last month, Clovelly won the National Landlord of the Year award for Energy Efficiency run by the Energy Efficiency Association.

“The work to make Clovelly’s 120 listed cottages energy efficient included fitting loft insulation, sloping ceiling insulation, concealed draught-proofing and award-winning secondary glazing. Together these measures are estimated to save around 40 per cent of heat loss.”

Clovelly named one of the “14 of the best car-free destinations for your next holiday”, alongside many in Europe. 

“While you’ll be exploring without the help of a vehicle, there are plenty of places to sit down, rest your legs and – most importantly – have a bite to eat. The village is well known for its Clovelly lobsters, sold at the Red Lion Harbour restaurant. And you can overlook the sea at the Bay Tree Café, or enjoy a glass of cider at The Snug and Harbour Bar.”

Clovelly has been featured as one of Devon and Cornwall’s best coastal villages and fish towns, being described by the article author, Claire James, as:

“Once a bustling fishing port, Clovelly is a quaint village in North Devon which is characterized by whitewashed cottages and a steep pedestrianized cobbled main street. Named the most Instagrammable British village in 2020, it is also privately owned, and has therefore maintained its old worldy atmosphere“.
