The Old Piggery
With views of the River Teign and a short walk to Shaldon Beach, the four holiday properties at Longmeadow Farm are situated on the owner’s family run, 80-acre farm and campsite. Forge Cottage which is close to the owners home is a detached first floor apartment sleeping two. The Cob Barn is a detached, two-storey cottage, set at the top of the farm, close to The Old Piggery which is a detached cottage sleeping two guests. The Cob Barn and The Old Piggery share the courtyard garden and offer privacy from the other cottages. Oyster Meadow adjoins the main farmhouse and is perfect for that family break offering shared use of the lawn and patio area, perfect for an evening barbecue along with a small private garden.
Children will love the farm animals which include sheep, kunekune pigs, miniature Shetland ponies, free range chickens and goats. Wander the narrow streets of Shaldon, Smuggler’s Cove beach, play a round of pitch and putt or have a bite to eat in one of the many pubs. Shaldon is located on the South West Coastal Path, a 630-mile journey with beautiful views, allowing walkers to enjoy any part of the route. Both Dartmoor National Park and Exeter are only 20 minutes’ drive away, whilst the famous south Devon coast, with wonderful sandy beaches, is barely 3 miles.

Kent’s Cavern, Model Village and Shaldon Zoo, and of course many tea shops, all serving Devon cream teas, can be found within easy reach. You can enjoy water sports, horse riding, golf and nature reserves, all close by. Take a trip from Torquay harbour to Brixham by boat, or visit the theatre in Torquay. Beach 1½ mile.
