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.

Very well laid out and appointed in an amazing location. The slight drawback was little âprivateâ out door space. Prior to our stay we were told due to the proximity of the two pubs it would be noisy. This was untrue. We would return
Howard
Parking was ok ,good walks and plenty to do on a wet day .well appointed kitchen .the potholes in the roads were being repaired when we were there which caused a degree of skill in reversing in the lanes,testing for townies.didnt see the bats plenty of birdsong
David
The house is very well designed, with the main living room and kitchen on the first floor, with its balcony overlooking (and at times overhanging) the water, making it an ideal spot for watching boats being launched and cars being rescued from the incoming tide. The whole house is very well appointed with all mod cons and is extremely comfortable, and well maintained. As we discovered, however, it is not always possible to leave vehicles on the property, as exceptionally high tides (spring tides combined with high winds) make this a hazardous policy. There is, however, plenty of alternative parking nearby. We also found the local community to be very friendly and welcoming.
