Old Post Office

About this property

The Old Post Office is a delightful Grade 2 listed cottage in the heart of the picturesque village of Stokenham, just a mile from the beach at Torcross. Beautifully presented with three bedrooms (two of which have pretty views across country to the sea), a cosy lounge with a log burner, good sized kitchen, dining room, and breakfast nook.  The garden is private and offers pretty views of the surrounding countryside, with a terrace for al fresco dining. Situated just across the lane is the village green accessed a couple of minutes walk away, with play park and lots of space to play. The cottage is in easy walking distance to the two excellent pubs in the village too. This gorgeous home is sure to be one guests will want to visit again and again.

The village of Stokenham sits on the Kingsbridge to Dartmouth coastal road, offering great access for those keen to get out and explore the area. The village itself has two excellent pubs and just half a mile away is Stokeley Farm Shop and café, handy for picking up fresh bread and a newspaper, great for breakfast and lunch, and the South Hams brewery’s Tap House hosts live music and themed evenings in the summer. Pretty walks around the surrounding countryside, to Brooking Woods or Torcross to enjoy the beach are all around. Salcombe is just 11 miles away, and can also be accessed on the foot ferry from the beaches at East Portlemouth. Dartmoor is 16 miles away and there are nearby attractions such as Woodlands leisure park for all the family to enjoy. Stokenham is a super village for your South Devon holiday.
