Due to a change in personal circumstances, some timeshares are currently available to buy in Rowley Moor House, the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway related holiday property.

Rowley Moor House is ideal for inviting family or friends for a week's holiday in North Devon. The house is just a short walk from the Old Station House at Blackmoor Gate.

The view from the wooden deck at the back of the house is already magnificent - shareholders are looking forward to the day when L&BR trains run past the bottom of the back garden!
