Despite the quiet rural location, it takes only minutes to drive to Torbay supermarkets and other services; and access is quick to historic Dartmouth's range of independent shops, restaurants and huge range of events including the world-renowned Dartmouth Regatta. Five minutes from the house is the new Noss on Dart Marina with its developing range of specialist marine services. The much-loved National Trust properties of Coleton Fishacre (Doyly Carte family) and Greenway (Agatha Christie) can be visited close by. Only about 30 minutes away is the popular town of Totnes and its mainline station north to London and south to Plymouth, with a bus service (number 18 & 120) that connects from Kingswear to Brixham and Paignton. The glorious beaches and walks which characterise the South Hams are within easy reach.
