Bed and Breakfast Summary

Higher Beneknowle
Diptford
Totnes
Devon


This romantic BnB offers candlelight dinners or just simple suppers by the log fire in the dining room or ‘al fresco’ in the beautiful garden on warm summer evenings for you and your invited guests.
Bed and Breakfast Description
This 17thC house, once 3 tiny cottages, is located at the end of a small private lane, in a quiet rural hamlet overlooking rolling pastureland and the southern edge of Dartmoor with Ugborough Beacon at the summit. Enjoy nearby country walks, stunning scenery, unspoilt beaches and delightful village pubs plus all that the South Hams of Devon has to offer. Come here for a warm welcome and genuine hospitality. Come and be spoilt at this hidden gem. A homemade Devon Cream Tea on arrival, complementary early evening drinks and canapés, masses of the latest books and magazines, CDs and DVDs and flowers from our garden.



Local Attractions
There is a wealth of interesting things to do and see in this part of Devon. We are just 5 miles from the Elizabethan town of Totnes, with a castle, museum and ancient buildings as well as some great shopping, food producers and fine restaurants. Many National Trust properties are close to us, including Greenaway, the newly opened former home and garden of Agatha Christie. You are spoilt for choice, but you could also consider: Horse Riding or Treking on Dartmoor; Farm tour of the original West Country organic farm, Riverford, followed by lunch in their restaurant; Cookery Classes with Trina by arrangement; Wine and Cheese Tasting at Sharpham Vineyard Estate; Boat Trips on the River Dart.

B&B Location

From the M5 - Exeter
About 5 miles after Exeter, the M5 leads straight into the A38. Stay on the A38 keep in one of the 2 outside lanes signposted Plymouth/Totnes. Then up a very steep hill, past Exeter racecourse, followed by some nasty downhill corners.

Keep on the A38, go past the Totnes turn off. The turning you want is marked Marley Head, signposted to Avonwick/South Brent and is 4 turn offs after Totnes/Kingsbridge.

At Marley Head, peel off the A38 and follow the signs to South Brent, ignore all the signs to Diptford at this stage. You will go through the outskirts of South Brent and soon after you will see signs for Avonwick and Totnes. Follow those signs. Just before the Woodpecker Pub (be careful here or you will end up back on the A38) the road is signposed Totnes/Avonwick and there are also signs for the Woodlands Park Adventure Park.

Travel past 2 pubs on your left, the first is the Turtley Corn Mill and the second is the Avon Inn in Avonwick. Past Cousins Bros. Garage on your right and then over a little narrow bridge over the River Avon. Watch for oncoming traffic here.

Immediately after going over the bridge turn right, it is signposted Diptford but this sign tends to get lost in the foliage. Travel along this narrow and winding road for about 500 yards and you will see a pretty cream and green painted cottage on your left with an unmade up lane alongside it.

Our house name is set in the grass verge at the side of the lane. Follow the lane up a steep hill past the cream cottage, plus another white house also on your left and a farm on your right. The lane will lead into our driveway.
