Situation - This parcel of amenity land is located just outside of the popular village of Bere Ferrers, on the Bere Peninsula in West Devon. The village is served by a pub and community shop, and benefits from an absence of through traffic. The area is sought-after by those with an interest in sailing and other water sports, with the nearby hamlet of Weir Quay providing a boatyard and moorings. Bere Ferrers train station is just half a mile away, providing a direct 25-minute rail service to Plymouth City Centre.
One stop in the other direction, the neighbouring village of Bere Alston offers further amenities, including the train station and bus connections, two mini-markets, a post office, butchers, hairdressers, primary school, doctor's surgery and pharmacy. Together with the surrounding hamlets, the two villages form the Bere Peninsula, created by the confluence of the rivers Tamar and Tavy, which itself falls within the Tamar Valley National Landscape (formerly AONB). The verdant wooded banks of the Tamar Valley, along the Devon/Cornwall border, offer superb opportunities to discover the region's rich heritage. The thriving market town of Tavistock, forming part of a designated World Heritage Site, is 8.5 miles away.

The remains of an old corrugated storage shed can be found adjacent to the entrance.
