Situated at the mouth of the River Dart, opposite the picturesque village of Kingswear, you’ll find the historical town of Dartmouth. It is in the beautiful setting of small valley around Addicombe Brook with lakes, numerous waterfalls and pools. Wonderful family-run woodland garden with 24 acres of flowering shrubs, wild flowers and rare trees in Dartmoor National Park. ‘A hidden gem’ ‘One of the finest gardens of its kind in the South West’. The atmosphere is cosmopolitan but with a distinctly rustic West Country flavour, and this makes it a remarkable place to visit for its heritage, culture and very attractive setting. This unique and charming market town sits in the heart of South Devon and has an international reputation for its lively and diverse community. Salcombe is a vibrant, busy little town that still manages to retain that unique Devon charm.

Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you can stay in some great accommodation in the area, with excellent restaurants and bars in which to sample the local cuisine.
