The West Country / Devon region

Hayloft Barn is located in the most southern part of Devon known as the South Hams. The South Hams is famous for its beautiful coast, unspoilt countryside, rugged moorland and award winning beaches - the South Hams has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Barn is surrounded by rolling hills, wooded river valleys, patchwork fields, picturesque villages and sandy beaches.

The Kingsbridge / South Hams area

There are a wide variety activities, attractions and sports in the area:

BEACHES - From sandy surf beaches to rock pools and coves, there are beaches for all tastes and pursuits.
Particularly recommended are the surf beaches of Bigbury and Bantham, with surf at one end and rock pools at the other. Also recommended are the award winning Blackpool Sands and the miles of fine pebbles at Slapton Sands. At Salcombe there are the lovely South & North Sands Beaches. Catch the ferry from Salcombe to East Portlemouth and you will be rewarded with more beautiful beaches like Sunny Cove. Bigbury and Blackpool Sands have excellent organic Venus Cafes to have lunch or grab a coffee. From Bigbury you can go to Burgh Island and eat at the traditional Pilchard Inn.

ADVENTURE PARKS One of the largest in the South West is at Woodlands Adventure Park. This is 20 minutes drive away from the Barn and boasts enough entertainment to keep everyone amused (for a reasonable price) for the day (at least).

BOAT HIRE - For fishing, sailing or leisure can be hired from either Salcombe or Dartmouth.

BOAT TRIPS & FERRIES - run regularly from Dartmouth, Kingsbridge and Salcombe across all of the estuaries.

CINEMA - a restored local cinema (the Reel) is running in Kingsbridge.

FISHING - tickets for sea trout and salmon on the River Avon can be purchased at the Post Office in the village. Local surf beaches hold good bass and shingle beaches have mackeral from May. There are also charter boats running from Salcombe and Dartmouth. Also short Mackerel trips run out of Salcombe. For coarse anglers there are a number of small commercial fisheries within a few miles. For specimen hunters, Emperor Lakes are a few minutes from the Barn. These hold carp to nearly 50lbs, sturgeon to 45lbs and catfish approaching 50lbs.

GARDENS, Abbeys, Castles and Houses - abound, but most notably are the Gardens at Soultram House, the Abbey at Buckfastleigh and Castles at Totnes and Dartmouth.

GOLF - there are several local courses; of special note is the links course at Bigbury, with spectacular cliff views from the course over the Avon Estuary towards Burgh Island

NATURE RESERVES - Slapton Ley is only 20 minutes away, while the Dartmoor National Park is 20 minutes inland and caters for horse riding, canoeing and other outdoor pursuits

STEAM RAILWAYS - at Buckfastleigh along the River Dart and at Kingswear up the Dart Estuary to Paignton
Walks - there are numerous country, woodland and spectacular coastal walks along the cliff tops

There is also a rich and ancient heritage, South Hams market and coastal towns will repay a visit. The towns of Totnes, Dartmouth, Salcombe and Kingsbridge all have a unique character and are well worth exploring. Of particular note are the two towns nearest Auton Cottage; Salcombe can be reached by passenger ferry from East Portlemouth. The town is perched on the cliffs facing Bolt Head and is a world renowned centre for sailing and watersports. Kingsbridge at the top of the estuary is a vibrant market town, with a good variety of local shops, pubs and restaurants.

Plymouth - the city is only 30 minutes away by car. It has a famous maritne heritage, new shopping precinct and there are many attractions worth visiting such as the sea water aquarium.

“Home from home - only better!” Wonderful, spotlessly clean, cosy barn conversion. The hosts live next door and were very welcoming and helpful. The barn was in a delightful location and was very quiet and pitch-black at night.... more
