WEB DESIGN IN CLOVELLY

Clovelly is genuinely unlike anywhere else in Devon — the steep cobbled street running down to the harbour, the donkeys, the whitewashed cottages, the privately-owned estate that keeps the whole place looking like it was preserved from another century. It pulls visitors in significant numbers year-round, but particularly between spring and autumn when the north Devon coast is at its best.

We're based in Northlew, which is about 20 minutes from Clovelly across the lanes and fields of north Devon. That makes us the closest agency to the village, and it means we understand the area's economy — tourism-led, seasonal, built on the quality of the experience rather than volume or price competition.

The businesses that cluster around Clovelly — holiday cottages, B&Bs, artisan workshops, local food producers, hospitality operators, and the wider north Devon rural economy — all share a similar challenge: their reputation and their product quality are strong, but their digital presence often doesn't reflect either. A visitor who has an amazing day in Clovelly will share it on social media and recommend it to friends. Whether those friends can find and book the relevant businesses online is a different question.

Holiday cottage and accommodation businesses are a particular area of strength for us. The economics of direct bookings versus platform bookings are well-understood in this area — Sykes, Airbnb, and Booking.com take substantial commissions, and every direct booking you can secure instead represents real money saved. A professional website with clear photography, an availability display, and a simple booking or enquiry process is the foundation of any direct booking strategy.

For artisan and craft businesses — the kind that often have a small shop or workshop in the Clovelly area — a website that shows your work properly and makes it easy to enquire or buy online extends your reach well beyond the visitors who happen to walk past your door. North Devon has a genuine craft tradition, and there's appetite for it online if you're presenting it well.

We also work with the trades community across north Devon — builders, plumbers, electricians, and specialists who cover the rural areas between Clovelly, Bideford, Barnstaple, and the surrounding villages. This part of Devon is less well-served by digital agencies than the Exeter end of the county, and there's a real opportunity for trades who get their local SEO right.

Our 7 Day Website package starts from £1,200 — a fixed price to get a professional site live in a week. For accommodation businesses, tourism operators, or anyone needing a booking system or online shop, our custom website service starts from £2,500. Whatever the brief, we'll give you a clear quote before anything starts.

Being 20 minutes away matters. If you want to sit down and talk through what you need before committing to anything, we're available for that. We prefer to understand the business properly before we start — and with clients this close, that's straightforward.
