  • "Toad Hall is a fabulous home from home place to stay in the lovely village of Newton Ferrers and also close to Noss Mayo village which is also a great place to have a wander around and visit the local pubs."

    We would highly recommend staying here. The house itself is spacious, well furnished and clean. The only point I would make is that the courtyard could do with a clean up to clear weeds etc, however apart from that, the courtyard is a lovely place to sit and relax in the sunshine. Great for dogs too as it is totally secure.

    Thank-you very much for your lovely feedback, we have taken this on board and we hope you come back and stay again soon!! Property Owner

  • "Just amazing."

    A beautiful property in a lovely little village - scenery is amazing, walks along the harbour are lovely, and everybody is incredibly friendly. The cottage had everything you could possibly need. Really clean and tidy. Loads of great information about local amenities, walks, etc in their folder. Bottle of fizz, dishwasher tablets and coffee pods in the welcome pack! We had an amazing week and would definitely go back there again in a heartbeat.

  • "Toad Hall was a real treat."

    The property is spacious, very comfortable and well equipped. It is set in a quiet residential part of the village about a 10 minute walk from the estuary and the pub and shops. We had lovely weather and sitting in the garden or the sunroom was a perfect way to while away a few hours in the afternoon. We hope to return very soon.

    Everything has been thought out very well and we appreciated all the facilities. Only one point that was a concern is the shower tray in the main downstairs bedroom was found to be slippery when showering.

  • "Fantastic house, in a great location."

    We did lots of walking from the house including the coastal path via Noss Mayo. The house was modern, clean and well equipped and the fire was a lovely surprise as there are no photos of it on the website. I needed to work from the house for a couple of days and although there is a desk in the 4th bedroom upstairs there is no WiFi. Apart from that it was a perfect break.

  • "This was a lovely place to stay for half term."

    The house is modern and furnished very well. The three bathrooms made it easy for three generations of family and we all enjoyed the space and open plan living area. The location was ideal with a short walk into the village where there were local shops and a pub. We all enjoyed it so much we have already booked for next year.

About the location

NEWTON FERRERS

Plymouth 8 miles.

A tranquil, picturesque village in the South Hams area of Devon, on a bend of the River Yealm leading up from the South Devon coast (1 mile). The perfect haven for sailors, for those who love messing about near water and for those who appreciate stunning and civilised countryside. There is a local butcher, chemist, post office and grocer in Newton Ferrers and an organic farm shop just two miles away. The village pub, with fantastic views across the water towards Noss Mayo and the creek, serves good food and drink. 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 8 miles away while beautiful Totnes with its 'alternative' view on life is a must. If the beach rather than boats is what you seek, you won't do better than the beautiful sands at Mothecombe and Bigbury just a few miles down the road. Both are accessible by road or boat from Newton Ferrers. There are a number of excellent golf courses nearby.
