A cosy barn surrounded by outstanding natural beauty

This 70 acre Dorset Sheep farm is set in the glorious countryside of South Hams, a uniquely lovely region boasting the mildest year-round climate in Britain. Four very comfortable cottages are scattered around the owners' farmhouse, varying from a delightful little 'hideaway' overlooking the duck pond, to two adjoining cottages, which can be interconnected to accommodate up to 12 people. With its fishing lake stocked with carp, tench and bream, and acres of farmland to which visitors enjoy access, Venn Farm provides a wonderfully relaxing holiday retreat, yet is only two miles from good roads that make it easy to explore further afield. Superb sandy beaches at Mothecombe and Bigbury-on-Sea, and a variety of watersports at the picturesque twin villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo are all within about half an hour's drive. The delightful little Georgian town of Modbury, with its specialist and antique shops and splendid inns, is under 5 miles, whilst nearby is Ivybridge, known as the southern gateway to Dartmoor, offers excellent sports facilities, an indoor pool and a renowned garden centre. Dartmoor National Park lies within easy reach – wild ponies, the Dartmoor Wildlife Park, Widecombe in the Moor and Buckfastleigh Abbey are just some of its attractions. National Trust properties at Saltram House – a magnificent mid-18th century mansion – and Coleton Fishacre are a short drive as is Burgh Island, of Agatha Christie fame. Plymouth and the Eden Project are further afield but afford excellent day trips. Closer to home, good walking, riding and golf can be enjoyed locally, and there are two village pubs within ¼ mile and shops in Wrangaton, 2 miles. The friendly owners welcome disabled visitors and have ensured that three cottages are suitable for wheelchair access and have flush to floor showers (a shower chair is available).

The perfect bolt hole for a romantic getaway by the sea.

This stylishly appointed property boasts a wonderful location for exploring the many attractions of the picturesque South Hams. Set adjoining the owners' home, it lies 3½ miles from Totnes – a thriving market town offering trips up the River Dart. Dartmouth's bustling waterfront, great shops and restaurants, as well as the sailing resort of Salcombe and the magnificent sandy beaches at Blackpool Sands are within easy driving distance as are Buckfast Abbey, Dartington Hall and Saltram House (N.T.). Dartmoor National Park's rugged grandeur and quaint villages are a little further afield. Riding, golf and sailing are available locally. Pub serving food and shops 2 miles.
