About Sherford
Discover one of South Devon's hidden gems when you book a holiday in Sherford. Tucked away in an unspoilt valley near Kingsbridge, this quiet little village is home to only a cluster of pretty thatched cottages, a church and village hall, offering a peaceful holiday spot where you can take your time to relax and unwind.
Yet despite its idyllic, rural feel, Sherford is only a couple of miles away from the bustling market town of Kingsbridge, the coast path and Start Bay. You could easily spend every day of your holiday in Sherford exploring the beautiful beaches that pepper this stretch of the coast. Head to Slapton Sands at Torcross for sunbathing, swimming and the Start Bay Inn's famous fish and chips, or visit Beesands for a quieter day at the beach, topped off with fresh seafood at Britannia @ the Beach or The Cricket Inn. Take a stroll around Slapton Ley Nature Reserve and spot many rare species of wildlife, and make sure to visit the ghostly ruins of Hallsands village - a must for anyone staying in Sherford.
The nearest villages to Sherford are Frogmore and Chillington, both less than two miles away. Chillington has a brilliant village shop where you can pick up the essentials, and a popular gastro-pub, The Bear and Blacksmith, which serves delicious food, while Frogmore, which sits on the edge of a picturesque creek, also has a friendly village pub, The Globe Inn.
Tucked away in the heart of the South Hams, a holiday in Sherford is perfect for those looking for peaceful, rural spot from which to enjoy the beautiful beaches, coastal walks and friendly market towns that South Devon is famed for.
