Situated
only a few miles north of Plymouth, the small waterside
village of Bere Ferrers lies between the rivers Tavy
and Tamar forming an island of rare seclusion. Astonishingly
it offers peace and tranquility in an outstanding landscape
edging on Dartmoor - a million miles from the hustle
and bustle of city life.
Most
convenient approaches are by car via the nearby market
town of Tavistock, or by train along the uniquely
surviving scenic branch line meandering beside the
Tamar to serve local villages before crossing into
the Duchy on an imposing viaduct. The surrounding
unspoilt landscape is full of contrast justifying
recent designation within an Area of Outstanding
natural Beauty.
Free
parking is provided at the station. |
