Holbeton is a quiet South Devon village, with a mix of thatched and stone cottages that give it a quaint, traditional charm. The village benefits from having a Post Office and village shop, and two pubs. The Dartmoor Union, in particular, is renowned for its great choice of food, and even offers a takeaway menu. The unspoilt Mothecombe beach is just a few minutes’ drive from the village, and both the beach and Holbeton itself have been featured in a variety of films and TV series including Sense and Sensibility, The Hornblower, Jonathan Creek and Rebecca, all due to their wonderfully picturesque location.

From Holbeton you can easily explore the nearby villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo, set on the beautiful wooded banks of the Yealm estuary. Wonwell Beach, on the east shore of the Erme river, is another popular local spot, particularly among dog owners as there are no restrictions here. Low tide reveals a large expanse of golden sand perfect for your four legged friend to chase a ball and run off some excess energy.

The nearby elegant town of Modbury offers lots of independent shops and cafés to choose from, and is famous for becoming the first town in Europe to go plastic bag-free in 2007.

A holiday cottage in Holbeton is a great base for exploring this pretty corner of South Devon.

Easily contactable via text and email. I paddled on my first morning with Fiona, and had a brilliant lesson 1:1 on a lovely stretch of water at Noss.

August 2021


This business is NOT based in Noss Mayo. No renting is allowed directly on the river so this shouldn’t be advertised.
