Directions by car
NB. We recommend that you do not use Satnav beyond Exeter because:-
a) it is likely to take you via Torbay and the Dartmouth Ferry!
b) it is likely to send you down extremely narrow lanes!
c) if you put in our postcode it will take you to Lower Beeson Farm and not to us at Beeson Farm!

We recommend either of the two routes outlined below:-

1. Slightly quicker route.
Take the A38 Exeter to Plymouth road, turning left at Buckfastleigh for Totnes (A384). At Totnes, turn right at the traffic lights for Kingsbridge (A381). On reaching Kingsbridge, take the A379 Dartmouth road until you reach the village of Stokenham. At the roundabout, turn right and follow this road for aproximately 1.5 miles until reaching a left hand turning to Beeson/Beesands. On reaching Beeson, the road forks, take right turn signed 'Beeson Farm'. Pass barns on left and the main drive can be found on the left after the farmhouse. Unloading and loading is in the farmyard, then please park in the carpark provided.

NB. Follow the brown signs for 'The Cricket Inn', which are easier to spot, until you enter the village of Beeson.
