Set within Exmoor National Park, this 16.40-acre pasture field delivers uninterrupted coastal panoramas across North Devon, with South Wales visible on clear days. The parcel includes a natural spring and commons grazing rights on Trentishoe Down, offering both aesthetic appeal and practical use for grazing. The South West Coast Path crosses the lower boundary, providing direct foot access to Heddon’s Mouth and Combe Martin.
The land is offered freehold with vacant possession and currently lies under a Countryside Stewardship agreement started January 2023. There are no mains services connected; water comes from the spring. Soil is naturally wet, very acidic sandy and loamy, and boundaries are mainly earth banks — suitable for grazing but likely needing improvement for other agricultural uses.
Access is via a defined right of way shown on the sale plan, with additional pedestrian access over adjoining common land. The plot adjoins Open Access and Registered Common land and sits outside NVZ and SSSI designation (though it adjoins West Exmoor Coast and Woods SSSI). This is a rural, remote holding suited to grazing, amenity use, or as a long-term land investment within a protected landscape.
