Choose from 4 places to stay in East Allington
East Allington is a small South Hams village in rolling countryside, a short drive from Kingsbridge and within easy reach of the coast at Slapton and Start Bay. Staying in a family holiday cottage in East Allington gives you a quieter, rural base, with The Fortescue Arms pub, village hall and playing field on hand, plus lanes and footpaths that link out towards nearby farms and hamlets. It works well if you like the idea of dipping in and out of beaches and estuary towns, then coming back to somewhere peaceful at the end of the day. It’s also a good base for exploring Totnes and Dartmouth.
For families, it is easy to build days around simple drives out to Slapton Sands, Blackpool Sands or Kingsbridge, then retreat to the village when everyone is ready for a change of pace. Woodlands Family Theme Park is less than 20 minutes away. Children can play in the garden or at the playing field, and shorter walks from the door help fill time without getting back in the car. A self-catering place in East Allington lets you stock up in nearby towns, keep meals flexible and enjoy quiet evenings together after time on the sand or exploring the lanes.
