The Dairy

About this property

Located on the outskirts of Malborough, an attractive village in South Devon (AONB) is The Dairy, a delightful annexe, inviting two guests. Featuring original features, a woodburning stove (starter pack provided with further logs available to purchase on site), and a terrace with a bench and table and chairs for alfresco dining whilst enjoying the far-reaching countryside views, The Dairy makes the ideal base for a romantic getaway, whilst also within proximity to the shoreline. Travel down the narrow country lane to reach the private driveway, before ascending the steps up to The Dairy. Be welcomed into the homely, open-plan living space, complete with plush seating, a TV, a rustling woodburning stove, and a small kitchen area, perfect for preparing a light meal. Watch the sun set over the Devonshire countryside from the front terrace, with a tipple in hand before retiring to the comfortable bedroom, with a sumptuous super king bed, ample storage, and an A-framed ceiling. Refresh in the sleek shower room ahead of a day of adventure, firstly grabbing a bite to eat at The Royal Oak, stocking up on the essentials at a nearby convenience store, or heading to Salcombe to dine out at a host of eateries including the Crab Shed, Winking Prawn or trying your hand at distiling your very own gin at Salcombe Gin distillary. Continue your day with a stroll across the North Sands, people watch at the harbour, discover the pretty blooms of Overbeck's Garden, or take in the beautiful scenery at Snapes Point. Reroute south to visit the picturesque landscape of Soar Mill Cove, or enjoy a hike across Bolberry Down, following the coastline and its network of walking trails. Complete your getaway in the pretty estuary town of Kingsbridge, or enjoying a leisurely afternoon at Hope Cove before returning home for sundowners. Escape with your loved one to The Dairy. There is hardstanding available on the property site to store a small boat / trailer for a separate daily supplement.

Malborough is a charming community with many thatched homes, a village store, two top-notch country inns, and a bustling post office. It is only two miles from Salcombe, the southernmost town in the South Hams and a popular sailing destination. Salcombe, which has a stunning, picturesque coastline, is a great place to go sailing, participate in water sports, go coastal hiking, or just relax and enjoy the sunshine. Explore the area's diverse fauna, go to some nearby rural estates and gardens, or go to the charming market town of Kingsbridge.
