Anchor Cottage is a stunning 4 bedroom cottage on the river on Devon's South Coast. The views are wonderful from all 3 floors and balconies and you can get straight into the river at high tide from the slipway and the beach is 1 mile away. Secure garage for storage of bikes, boats, kayaks & paddle boards. Shared private slipway provides easy access to the Yealm at high tide. Private area of lawn opposite the cottage with garden furniture provided. Anchor Cottage is the perfect base for walking, cycling, water sports and birdwatching. Excellent location for two families looking to enjoy the area of outstanding natural beauty, beaches, river and forest all on the doorstep. A bit of heaven in Devon!

Hi I'm Karen and I live in Devon with my husband, 3 boys, 2 cats and a puppy called Mabel. Our beautiful holiday home is right on the river and is perfect if you want to paddle board, kayak, cycle, sail, walk or wild swim. I can recommend loads of great local beaches, walks, places to eat and drink or even places to indulge in a bit of retail therapy. Loads of activities are completely free, you can take a short walk from the cottage to one of my favourite beaches in the whole of the world and watch the sunset, all for the price of a picnic! There's a large garage where you can store any bikes or boards or even a boat. If you time the tide right my favourite thing is to paddle board to our local pub for a pint & some fresh scallops...

The tiny, pretty village of Noss Mayo is hidden away on the southern bank of the Yealm Estuary and is home to two good pubs. Across the water is the larger village of Newton Ferrers, and you can get between the two villages by a causeway at low tide and a seasonal ferry that operates a triangular route and calls in at the SW Coastal Path, Noss Mayo and Newton Ferrers. Newton Ferrers has a local butcher, chemist and Post Office. The village pub has fantastic views across the water towards Noss Mayo and the creek. The area is blessed with many walks that meander along the waterside and across the fields, while to the north Dartmoor's high tors and open spaces beckon those who love wild country. The city of Plymouth with its shops, Marine Aquarium and Barbican quayside area is just 10 miles away.
