In the picturesque South Hams region of south Devon, the bustling small town of Kingsbridge is located at the head of a saltwater estuary. River trips are offered to Salcombe in the summer to view the plethora of species that calls this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (aonb), which is also a part of the South Devon Heritage Coast, home. Walking down Kingsbridge Quay, exploring the winding lanes off Fore Street, or going to the Shambles, an Elizabethan market arcade, are all options for tourists. There are several scenic ports in the South Hams region, including Dartmouth and Salcombe, as well as beautiful Blackpool Sands in Stoke Fleming and the sandy beaches at Thurlestone, Bigbury and Bantham. The South Hams region is home to several charming small towns with interesting pubs, shops selling fresh local produce, and rows of pretty cottages. In addition, Plymouth, a waterfront city, is a bustling city with the National Marine Aquarium, the historic Barbican Quay, and a variety of nightlife options like theatres, restaurants, and bars.

  • Belinda

    Very well maintained, including the grounds. Having the use of a swimming pool was excellent too. The location was nice and peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle of the towns, but close enough if you required provisions. The bed was very comfortable and the facilities excellent. Most enjoyable.

  • David

    Very impressed with the quality of everything. The location is a bit of a challenge with the narrow country lanes. Selecting the best route out was testing. As the weather was extremely hot during our stay a fan would have been ideal to make the hot evening and nights more comfortable.

  • Bob

    We could not fault Primrose, it was pristine throughout. It has every conceivable facility and utensil all immaculately clean. Very comfortable beds and sofas. Would definitely visit again. We visited mid September thinking the area would be fairly quiet, but we were disappointed to find the South Hams area really busy. This is no reflection of Stancombe Manor. Also, it’s worth noting that driving around the narrow roads and lanes of the South Hams is not for the feint hearted.
