Constantly changing, Bantham is always beautiful. Windswept in the winter, sun kissed in the Summer glorious sunsets, surf and acres of sand... we could just go there every day and see something new.. Go really early or late to avoid the crowds and have dinner or breakfast on the beach.. Parking is very pricey though!

You can get just about everything you need in Kingsbridge plus little extra.. lots of independent shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants makes it appealing and it's still got its feet firmly on the ground. This strange year has closed the door on some shops but others are spring up in their place and would love a little custom! There's something for everyone.

Depending on which way you walk Aymer Cove is at the bottom of a long hill down from Ringmore, or a flattish walk through fields followed by a very steep coast path down to the bay. Good to get fit on! The cliffs are stunning and if you time your walk to fit in with low tide there are wonderful rock pools to explore and you can follow those rock pools round to the next beach and come back up from there.. eat at the Journeys End Inn in Ringmore after for a wonderful day out!
