The peaceful hamlet of Didworthy on the south western edge of Dartmoor National Park enjoys an idyllic and tranquil location, whilst being only a few minutes' drive from the bustling village of South Brent with its wide range of independent shops, traditional tea rooms and friendly pubs.
Dartmoor offers visitors a rich and varied landscape, from bleak rocky outcrops, to vast expanses of heather moorland, and rushing rivers flowing through lush wooded valleys. The best way to fully appreciate the natural scenery is either on foot, bike, kayak or horseback, but if you are driving, be prepared to come across sheep in the road!
From Didworthy, there is a lovely scenic walk starting a short way upstream at Shipley Bridge, that follows the river Avon along a tree-lined section that gradually becomes more barren and windswept as your approach the Avon Dam at the top.
There are a wide range of nearby attractions for visitors to enjoy, including a picturesque ride the South Devon Steam Railway, the Otter Sanctuary & Butterfly Farm, the River Dart Country Park, Pennywell Farm or Sharpham Vineyard. Meanwhile, the Cathedral city of Exeter and maritime city of Plymouth are only a short drive away, as are the historic towns of Totnes, Dartmouth and Kingsbridge, and the sailing mecca of Salcombe.
If you fancy a day at the coast, there are several outstanding beaches in the South Hams, including Bigbury-on-Sea, Bantham, and Blackpool Sands, as well as the popular South West Coast Path for blustery clifftop walks with breathtaking views.
A holiday cottage in Didworthy offers a peaceful escape where you can easily immerse yourself in the wild beauty of Dartmoor, and explore the stunning South Devon countryside, traditional seaside towns, family-friendly beaches and magnificent coastline.
