Foxenhole FarmhouseDittishamSelf catering holiday cottageSouth Devon |
A hilltop location provides Foxenhole Farmhouse with stunning panoramic views across rolling Devon countryside to the river Dart and beyond to the heights of Dartmoor in the distance. This detached former farmhouse has been recently refurbished to a high standard and provides tasteful, very comfortable accommodation with an extensive garden in a beautiful area. A pleasant 10 minute stroll down the hill reaches Dittisham, a quintessential attractive and unspoilt South Devon village in a tranquil setting overlooking the widest part of the River Dart. There are delightful stone built and thatched cottages with gorgeous views of bright river craft making a splash of colour against a backdrop of densely wooded slopes. Narrow lanes reach down to the beach where the waters are a popular venue for boating enthusiasts. The village is lively with a village shop and two good pubs, one on the waterside where the quay is a favourite spot for crabbing and a tug on a bell rope calls the ferry boatman to collect you to visit Greenways, Agatha Christie's original home , now part of the National Trust. Dartmouth and Totnes are easily reached by ferry and there are boats for hire, dinghy moorings and a sailing school.
Guests at Foxenhole Farmhouse will be able to enjoy the facilities at Dartmouth Golf and Country Club that include:
FREE unrestricted and unlimited access to the extensive facilities at Lakeside Health & Leisure Centre at Dartmouth Golf & Country Club. Facilities include: Indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room, spa bath and fully equipped gymnasium.
