The property

The Porthole is an elegant semi-detached house just 150 yards from the centre of Newton Ferrers.

Offering an excellent base for families or friends, this pet-friendly retreat features a welcoming woodburning stove, a balcony, and far-reaching views.

With a south-facing aspect overlooking the river, it offers generous and comfortable accommodation—ideal for unwinding and enjoying the charm of this much-loved village.

From the road, descend 18 steep steps (with a handrail) through a private gate and into the porch, where you can leave coats and boots.

The kitchen is well-appointed and filled with natural light, featuring granite worktops and a small breakfast area—perfect for a morning pastry and the newspaper.

The sitting room, decorated in calming tones with a polished wooden floor, invites you to relax beside the wood-burning stove.

On fine days, open the French windows to access the sunny terrace.

Also on this level is a bunk bedroom, ideal for children.

Upstairs, reached via steep and narrow stairs, are two further bedrooms, each with a balcony that allows you to step outside and take in the sweeping riverside views.

In addition to the balconies, there is a sheltered terrace adorned with wisteria—an excellent spot for outdoor meals or a quiet drink.

A short stroll takes you into the village for essentials or a meal at one of the welcoming waterside inns.

For those who enjoy walking, nearby National Trust woodland and the scenic South West Coast Path offer beautiful routes.

For more energetic pursuits, there are opportunities for wakeboarding, paddleboarding, tennis, and horse riding.

The nearby Cellars Beach and the beach at Mothecombe are both well worth a visit, showcasing the natural beauty of the South Devon coastline.

And if you're in the mood for a livelier atmosphere, Plymouth is within easy reach, offering a rich maritime history, a variety of shops, restaurants, and attractions.

The Porthole invites you to stay, drift, and explore — whether that means curling up by the fire, losing track of time on the terrace, or setting out on a new adventure each day.

The Porthole is a delightful place to recharge and enjoy all that this part of Devon has to offer.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

Where you’ll be staying

View on map

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 post office, a chemist and a 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 will not do better than the beautiful sands at Mothecombe and Bigbury just a few miles down the road. Both are easily accessible from Newton Ferrers; the more intrepid explorers might want to tackle the more isolated Cellar Beach which can be accessed on foot or boot from the village. There are also a number of excellent golf courses nearby.
