Set in a picturesque fairytale valley in the heart of true South Hams countryside, in a pretty narrow leafy lane in the tiny hamlet of Embridge stands this attractive former home of author A.A. Milne's real life character, Christopher Robin. The cottage is very comfortable and tastefully furnished to a high standard with many personal touches. Care has been taken to make this a romantic, atmospheric and welcoming cottage. Blackpool Sands is about twenty minutes walk along a delightful narrow single track lane used only by a handful of cars.
