Toad Hall Cottages

This most unusual property, a magnificent architect designed barn conversion within Buckland Court, originally built as the hay barn in the 1860s as part of the model home farm for a local estate. These outstanding, listed, former farm buildings are symmetrically grouped around two large courtyards and are located in a sunny sheltered valley on the edge of the pretty hamlet of Goveton. The Hall is situated 2 miles from Kingsbridge at the head of the Kingsbridge/Salcombe estuary and close to everything that the beautiful South Hams has to offer, with Dartmoor not far in the other direction. The Hall is superbly comfortable with very high quality, contemporary fittings, furniture and stripped wood floors, with it's own superb private indoor swimming pool with a jet stream counter current overlooked from the atrium style hall and master bedroom. The hugely spacious open plan living area is on the second floor and has a vaulted ceiling with exposed roof trusses adding to the character and feeling of brightness and space in this remarkable place.
