Driving in Barnstaple – What to Expect
Barnstaple gives learners experience across a useful mix of town roads, major regional routes, residential areas and roads leading into the wider North Devon area.
Depending on where you live and the routes used by your instructor, your training may include:
The A361 North Devon Link Road and A39, providing experience of faster-moving traffic, major junctions and key regional routes around North Devon.
Sticklepath and the roads around Barnstaple town centre, where learners can develop awareness, positioning and control in busier urban traffic.
Roundabouts and junctions around the A361 and Roundswell, helping build confidence with lane discipline, traffic flow and decision-making.
Roundswell Retail Park and other suitable parking areas, where quieter sections may provide opportunities to practise parking, observation and low-speed control.
Newport and Pilton, with residential roads, parked vehicles and meeting situations that help develop hazard awareness and judgement.
Routes towards Bideford and Braunton, giving learners experience of varied speed limits, rural sections and changing road conditions outside the immediate town centre.
This mixture of road types helps learners build experience across different driving conditions rather than practising on the same type of road throughout their course.

I recently took the 36hr course with Garry Lester who I cannot highly recommended enough I started out the week with no confidence not wanting to drive anywhere by the Friday being test standard! Unfortunately I didn’t pass my test as my nerves got the better of me I got 5minors and 1serious for going into 1st gear instead of 3rd.
Chris was fantastic! I was very nervous about learning to drive after having put it off for so long but he made me feel comfortable and the days ended up flying by. I Couldn’t have asked for a better teacher.
