Luxury self-catering accommodation in Newton Ferrers
In the heart of South Hams is a pretty riverside village, tucked neatly into the banks of the River Yealm estuary in South Devon.
Newton Ferrers has a longstanding nautical history, rumoured as the birthplace of the notorious 17th Century pirate, Henry Every or ‘Long Ben’ as he was known to his crewmen. Thankfully no pirates roam the river now, although Newton Ferrers continues to be a hive of boating activity. Hire a boat and sail downriver discovering some of Devon’s hidden treasures. For those who don’t have sailing under their belts, hop aboard the small ferry and cruise to nearby Wembury for a day trip.
The South Hams have some of the best beaches in the South West and a holiday in Newton Ferrers promises the perfect base to uncover them. Famed for their beauty and diversity, nearby beaches such as Wembury, Mothecombe, Bantham, Thurlestone and Challaborough will ensure hours of seaside fun with endless rock pooling, sandcastle building and surfing opportunities. For beaches closer to home, kayak along the creek and stumble upon the sandy shores of the river, only unearthed once the tide retreats.
