One of the best things about staying at Higher Aunemouth Farm is that once you've arrived, you can leave the car behind. This is South Devon at its very best.
A Beautiful Walk Away
A beautiful walk along the Avon Estuary leads you into Bantham village and on to Bantham Beach, one of the UK's best-loved surfing beaches. Wide sandy beaches, rolling surf and stunning views towards Burgh Island have made it a favourite with families, surfers and outdoor lovers for generations.
It's the perfect place to spend the day, whether you're in the water, exploring the rock pools or simply watching the tide roll in. During the summer months, RNLI lifeguards help make the beach a safe place for everyone to enjoy.
Surf, Swim & Paddle
Bantham is one of the UK's most popular surfing beaches, welcoming everyone from complete beginners to experienced surfers. If you've always wanted to give it a go, local surf schools offer lessons and equipment hire, while experienced surfers can simply grab their board and head for the waves.
The calm waters of the Avon Estuary are also perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking and wild swimming, offering a completely different way to explore this beautiful coastline.
Beyond the Beach
Walk the South West Coast Path, catch the ferry across to Bigbury, explore Burgh Island or spend the afternoon wandering through Kingsbridge and Salcombe. If you're looking to relax after a day in the sea, warm up at Somewhere Sauna or enjoy a meal in one of the many cafés and pubs nearby.
However you choose to spend your day, you'll always return to the peace and quiet of Higher Aunemouth Farm. If you're looking for surf lessons, paddleboard hire or local recommendations, we're always happy to point you in the right direction.
