Cottage in South Devon

About this property

With stunning sea and river views, nestled in the south facing bank of the Yealm estuary, in the pretty village of Newton Ferrers, this cosy home offers guests a wonderful blend of exclusive comfort whilst being within walking distance of the local shops, pub with restaurant, the Yacht Club Bar and the Village Green Cake and Deli shop and eateries. The village is surrounded by ancient woodland and beautiful creeks allowing guests and even four legged friends to take in the stunning surroundings with ease, whilst you can also swap woodland for coastline and enjoy the clifftop views of the South West Coast path for a truly eye catching trek. Depending on the tide, you can walk or catch a ferry across the River Yealm to Noss Mayo and enjoy a stroll through the pretty woodland to Cellar Beach, where dogs are welcome. Go on a paddleboard adventure on the river, rental is based in Newton Ferrers (subject to availability). The village of Noss Mayo is just 1.5 miles (closer at low tide!) there you will find two more lovely local pubs, whilst slightly further afield you will find popular Devonshire hotspots in cinematic Mothecombe Beach (5.4miles, International Velvet and Hornblower filmed there), Plymouth (8 miles), which offers plenty of places to eat, one being The Fig Tree, or try The Oyster Shack at Bigbury on sea (15 miles). This property, previously known as Scantlings, is set above the road accessed via a number of steps to the front, once you arrive at the patio area, take a moment to simply pause, turn and take in the view.
