Swallows' Flight - The Nest

Slapton and Torcross, South West England

Swallows' Flight - The Nest
Tucked into Slapton and Torcross on the South Devon coast, The Nest sleeps four and makes a comfortable base for a quieter seaside break. Slapton Sands Torcross is just 2.1 miles off, with excellent water quality, so it's an easy spot for a day by the sea.

Further afield, Cookworthy Museum and Salcombe Maritime Museum offer a change of pace if the weather turns, while Woodlands Family Theme Park is handy if you've got children to keep entertained. Totnes station, 10.7 miles away, gives you a rail link should you want to explore beyond Devon without the car.
