Higher Hannaford Cottage is set in an idyllic rural location on Dartmoor’s southern slopes. It is nestled high above and is only a stones throw away from the beautiful river Dart. The property has been decorated and furnished to a very high standard and offers perfect base for a family holiday. Located 3.5 miles from the ancient stannery town of Ashburton, it is perfectly situated for exploring and enjoying the host of activities that Dartmoor has to offer. There are wonderful walks from the doorstep, riding, canoeing, fly fishing, cycling and bird watching (Hannaford is used by RSPB for a spring camp) or simply as a quiet retreat. There is something for everyone throughout the year. Though best known for its rich history, folklore, and geology, the thriving moorland community guarantees a wealth of famers markets providing quality local food year round. There are plenty of outlets for local crafts, and the summer months bring music and cultural events including Dartington Literature Festival, The International Summer School of Music, and Widecombe Fair. There are plenty of opportunities for day trips. The historic market town of Totnes has a famous Friday market and boat trips down the river Dart to the estuary town of Dartmouth, whilst Tavistock has the best cheese shop in the UK. Both North and South coasts are spectacular and offer great beaches, surfing, and magnificent coastal walks. They are easily accessible by car, bike, foot or train. The Eden project is a little over an hour away to the North West. Shop 3 miles, pub and restaurant ¾ mile.
