 Heathfield Garden House
Modbury, Devon.,United Kingdom
Heathfield Down Farm is a unique Grade ll listed property, set in some 80acres of tranquil grounds, amidst the glorious South Hams countryside. Forming three adjoining properties, this traditional farmhouse has been tastefully renovated to a high standard, yet retains many period features, with open fires or wood-burning stoves lending a cosy, inviting feel. Open views can be enjoyed from the house and gardens, over the surrounding undulating landscape. The small and popular town of Modbury, with its charming shops, handsome old inn, local craft centre and impressive church, lies just 2miles away. This is an ideal base for exploring the Devon coastline, with its numerous sandy beaches, a mere 6miles distant. The bustling holiday hamlet of Bigbury-on-Sea is within driving distance - from here visitors can follow a 4-mile long `tidal lane' during low tide or visit Burgh Island, with its 14th-century inn and smuggling connections. The beach at Bantham is also easily accessible, as is Thurlestone, a chocolate-box village of pink-washed thatched cottages, with a splendid sandy beach backed by rolling farmland. Golfing enthusiasts will find renowned courses at Thurlestone and Bigbury, while fishing enthusiasts can try their luck in the nearby River Avon. There are beautiful views towards Dartmoor National Park, 5miles to the north and a haven for walkers and nature lovers, with local wildlife include ponies roaming free, buzzards and kestrels. Plymouth and Exeter with their extensive shopping and leisure facilities are approximately 14miles and 40miles respectively. The county town of Exeter is dominated by the distinctive St Peter's Cathedral, a stately monument made conspicuous by two great Norman towers flanking the nave, with much of the interior dating back as far as the 13th and 14th centuries. Other ancient buildings include the 14th-century Guildhall, several medieval churches and the old Quayside with the smart Custom House, built in 1681. Yachting at Newton Ferrers, Salcombe and Dartmouth. Pub 3miles.
