Marine Parade, Shaldon, TQ14

LOCATION Ferryman's Reach is idyllically set, quite literally a stone's throw from Shaldon's sandy estuary beach and is a relatively short and level walk to the village centre amenities. The village has a strong sense of community and nestles beautifully between the sandy estuary beach and the pretty hills above. There are independent shops and cafes, a good selection of public houses and restaurants and a charming foot passenger ferry across to the seaside town of Teignmouth. Additional amenities include an Ofsted 'Outstanding' rated primary school, The Ness House Hotel and a bowling green surrounded by pretty cottages. There is a well-supported annual regatta and water carnival as well as a rowing and sailing club. There is good walking on the south west coast path and the wonderful Ness Beach is accessed via a tunnel. The village even has a small zoo! Teignmouth is just over a mile away and has a lovely promenade with classic Georgian crescent and a range of education options including Trinity School, offering both private primary and secondary education. In addition there is a mainline rail link to London Paddington.
