Aish Cottage is ideally located for everything the South Hams and Devon has to offer. There is easy access to the River Dart via the popular village of Stoke Gabriel as well being within convenient reach of the popular market town of Totnes. From the house there are excellent views out over countryside towards the Dart valley.

Communications are good and regular intercity rail services run from Totnes to London (Paddington – 3 hours). The A38 Devon Expressway, about 10 miles to the north, provides dual carriageway access to the M5 motorway at Exeter. There are regular flights to London and other UK and international destinations from Exeter airport.

Despite this unspoilt setting, the village of Stoke Gabriel is only about a mile away with pubs, 2 restaurants, sailing club, a junior fun sailing club and an excellent football club and cricket club. The village has a Parish Church, a primary school, and excellent village shop. There is a thriving local community in Stoke Gabriel which also has an annual Carnival and Regatta. It is just 2 miles to the nearest supermarket and about 4 miles to both Totnes and Torbay which provide a first class selection of shops, schools and cultural amenities, including music and drama at Dartington.

Stoke Gabriel has a toddler group, pre-school and a very successful primary school. 5 miles away are Torquay girls and boys grammar schools along with independent schools, all of which are serviced by coaches from Totnes. Secondary schooling in the area is excellent; South Devon College is recognised by Ofsted as 'Outstanding' and one of the top Further Education and Tertiary Colleges in England. There are easy links to Exeter's fine selection of state and independent schools with a school bus collection from Newton Abbot.

The River Dart is, of course, well known as a wonderful centre for yachting and dinghy sailing. There are endless opportunities for exploring the river and its mouth at Dartmouth about 5 miles away right up to Totnes. For cruising yachts Dartmouth is a wonderful base, with Torbay and the Solent to the east, Plymouth, Fowey, Falmouth and the Helford River to the west and the Channel Islands and France to the South. Other sporting amenities in the area include good golf courses at Churston and Dartmouth. Dartmoor National Park just 10 miles to the north provides endless opportunities for riding, walking and fishing and there are a number of good shoots in the area.
