Tucked away in beautifully scenic countryside is the tranquil hamlet of Beeson. It’s a half mile walk from this rural retreat down to the beach and village of Beesands. If you’re after good food, Beesands offers a mouth-watering dilemma between The Cricket Inn and the local seafood shack, Brittania @ The Beach. From there you can simply take a stroll along the shingle beach or follow the South West Coast Path towards neighbouring Torcross or to Start Point, passing the remains of Hallsands, a village famously claimed by the sea during a terrible storm in 1917.
From Beeson, driving the dramatic coast road towards Dartmouth is a must, as is stopping off for a coffee or a snack at the Venus Cafe at Blackpool Sands, to enjoy sparkling turquoise water contrasted against the golden beach and unspoilt pine-wooded hills. Once in Dartmouth you’ll find plenty to entertain you, with a plethora of cafes and restaurants plus plenty of independent shops and galleries all situated close to the scenic waterfront.
A holiday cottage in Beeson provides a peaceful base for exploring this beautiful corner of South Devon.
