The two bedrooms are made up of a king-size and a twin room, both bright and airy with a welcoming interior making it a charming spot to unwind each evening.

In the mornings, spend a moment or two in the front courtyard breathing in the fresh countryside air, before heading out into the local area to discover the amenities of Churchstow where you can find a Post Office with shop, a traditional village pub and the beautiful St Mary's Church just nearby.

Kingsbridge, less than a mile away provides a wider selection of amenities along its scenic waterfront, as well as a range of art galleries and a museum perfect for discovering the local talent and rich culture of the area.

Or make your way to Salcombe, where attractions include Salcombe Distilling Co, golden sandy beaches boasting a range of watersporting opportunities, and the National Trust wonder of the Edwardian Overbeck's Museum and Garden.

Plymouth's maritime heritage is also well-worth exploring, with its Barbican district being a particular marvel, or make your way to Dartmouth or Totnes to find even more family-friendly activities.
