Yetson Hayes Cottage
Ashprington, Nr Totnes, Devon, England
| Description: |
In a superb location on a dreamy
wooded inlet off the River Dart Estuary, this unique Georgian
cottage is tucked into a hillside with glorious views. Delightful,
arched windows with stunning views across the valley make this
cottage very special. Charming and imaginative décor sets
off each room with its own individual character. It offers a beamed
living room with wood-burning stove and French doors opening on
to a decked terrace, and a large hand-made pine kitchen/dining-room
with feature fireplace and slate floor. The large garden includes
a flower garden and woodland area. Trout fishing and picnicking
by the river in the meadow.
It is just a short stroll to two country pubs where riverside
barbecues and excellent eating can be enjoyed by the water's edge
in an area of outstanding natural beauty, with the villages of
Ashprington and Tuckenhay nearby.Only 6 miles from the sea at
Dartmouth, and close to the historic market town of Totnes, this
is a delightful countryside location, within easy reach of some
of South Devon's loveliest beaches and coves, as well as the wild
expanse of the Dartmoor National Park. Guests can also enjoy a
25% discount at the Dartmouth Golf Club, with an 18-hole championship
course as well as a 9-hole club course, health spa and swimming-pool.
This beautiful area, with its wooded valley sides and abundant
wildlife, offers rewarding opportunities for walkers and bird-watchers.
Riding is available locally, as well as river fishing, while sea
and boat fishing, and boat trips from local harbors, can all be
enjoyed within a few miles. Nearby Totnes is a picturesque town
with a castle (English Heritage) and some old buildings standing
on pillars over the pavement. The Devonshire Collection of Period
Costume can be seen in the museum here. Wine-tasting at Sharpham
Vineyard overlooking the Estuary close by.
