Formerly a granary, Yeoman's Cottage, attached on one side of a lovely thatched Devon longhouse, is situated at the end of a no-through road at the head of a beautiful, hidden valley edged with trees and where a former cider orchard with ornamental trees slopes down to two ponds naturally fed by local springs. The area is a natural habitat for ducks, moorhens, herons and a Preservation Area for the Cirl Bunting. In the distance the heights of Salcombe can be seen, but all that can be heard is the sound of birdsong , a magical and very peaceful spot.
