Root House is situated on the outskirts of the popular village of Dartington, near Totnes. Dartington has an active community and a good range of facilities, including a primary school, the Steiner School, a popular thatched pub, church, village hall and community-run outdoor swimming pool. The award-winning Ben’s Farm Shop is less than a mile away, as is the Riverford Field Kitchen Organic Restaurant. The Dartington Hall Estate is also very close by, providing beautiful gardens and parkland walks together with a barn cinema, tea room, the White Hart pub and the Dartington shops with unique boutiques and eateries. Every year the Hall holds a renowned literary festival and international music events.

Approximately three miles away, the historic, market town of Totnes was once described as one of the best places to live in the South West by The Times and was named as one of the top 30 coolest places in Britain by the Sunday Times. The town has a medieval castle, direct access to the River Dart and offers an eclectic range of shops including an organic vegetable shop, a specialist record store, an exceptionally well stocked book shop and many other interesting independent shops. There is a street market twice a week and a monthly food market.

For outdoor pursuits, the property is ideally located: readily accessible to the South Devon coastline, Dartmoor National Park and the award winning beaches along the English Riviera. Communication links are also excellent; Totnes has a mainline station giving direct connections to London Paddington and there is also good access to the A38 Devon Expressway which links to the M5 at Exeter. Exeter International Airport, approximately 28 miles away, provides a good range of flights to domestic and European destinations

Root House has its own very pretty large courtyard garden at the front of the property, with a central water feature

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
