This most attractive South Devon holiday home is perfect for nature lovers, bird watchers, artists, walkers and strollers. If peace and natural beauty appeal to you come and share our wonderful property - whatever the season. This warm and comfortable property is ideal for winter breaks. Were Down enjoys an exceptionally beautiful and peaceful location. Secluded but not remote, the house is set on a hillside amongst 12 acres of mixed woodland overlooking the creek leading to the delightful River Avon renowned for its beauty, wading birds, swans and snowy white egrets. There is access on foot via private paths to the Avon Estuary Walk and Bigbury Golf Club and Course is a mile away for that essential game of golf, with the popular South Devon beaches of Bigbury on Sea a short drive away. Were Down, a much loved family home, has been divided to provide separate, self-contained accommodation for visitors combining the benefits of privacy with someone on hand to help if necessary.
