HARBERTON 

Harberton is one of the South Hams' most sought after villages, being close to Totnes and having its own strong community centring around St Andrew's Church, the popular Church House Inn and the parish hall. With an outstanding village pub and farm shop selling local produce (both within walking distance), it offers a superb lifestyle in an idyllic location. Totnes, within about 2 miles and just a 1- minute drive, is known as an Elizabethan town but has much earlier origins with a castle, a wonderful position on the River Dart and a main line railway station. It has a well regarded community college, full range of shops, a weekly market and a wide choice of cultural facilities. Belsford where this lovely house is located, sits just outside Harberton and is a small friendly hamlet of just five houses on a no through road with very little traffic.
