Description: Five peaceful cottages on a working organic dairy farm set in unspoilt countryside on the beautiful South Devon coast. All our individual cottages are just a 10 minute walk from the coast path and some lovely remote beaches, whilst the wilderness of Dartmoor is only a short drive away. The wonderful Erme estuary and Mothecombe beach, with over 130 acres of sand at low tide, is just a couple of miles away. Explore the nearby picturesque towns of Kingsbridge, Dartmouth and Salcombe or visit the historic port of Plymouth. Why not visit out of season and cosy down by a roaring log fire, or come and see the lambs in spring? Short breaks available November to March. We put organic milk, fresh from the cows, in each cottage for guests on arrival. Carswell is also the birthplace of the Well Hung Meat Company so our guests can taste award winning organic lamb and beef. All the cottages are well equipped with TVs, DVDs, washing machines, microwaves, dishwashers etc and all have private gardens with table and BBQ. Cots and high chairs available on request. Well behaved pets are welcome in Spring, Shepherd's and Corner Cottages. Open all year. Location: In the heart of the South Hams in Devon, Carswell Farm is surrounded by unspoilt countryside and overlooks the sea. The coastal path is right on the doorstep, providing stunning walks that lead to quiet beaches and picturesque villages. It is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with an exceptional variety of wildlife and plants, including some extremely rare species that are encouraged because the farm is organic. Carswell is one of the few places in the country where you could spot a cirl bunting and there is a pair of faithful Peregrine Falcons who nest on the cliff here every year. We have an abundance of wildlife, hares, owls, bats and badgers are just a few of the residents you are sure to see, and many more besides. The remote wilderness of Dartmoor dominates the views to the north and is just a short drive away, while the beautiful estuary of Erme and Mothecombe beach are also only a couple of miles from here. With 130 acres of sand at low tide, many well known productions like Sense and Sensibility and Hornblower have been filmed in this stunning location. Explore the nearby picturesque towns of Kingsbridge, Dartmouth and Salcombe or visit the historic port of Plymouth to see where the Mayflower set sail to America or enjoy a visit to the famous National Marine Aquarium. |
