Choose a break on a farm. It's peaceful and homely, like a step back in time but with up-to-date comfort. Delicious farmhouse cooking with fresh local produce and home made bread and preserves - all in a tranquil rural setting. SILVER AWARD in South Hams Green Tourism Business Scheme. See www.somewhere-special.co.uk for more information. We welcome interest in our farm which is managed in an environmentally friendly way, our suckler cows, calves, beef cattle and sheep graze the herb-rich grass and shelter by the traditional Devon hedges.
