...in the heart of the West Country.

How to find us..... The nearest Motorway is the M5 and it ends at Exeter.
Take the A30 going West following signs for Okehampton.
Continue on the A30 past Okehampton following signs for Launceston.
Approximately 7 miles before Launceston there is a large exit sign,
coloured brown indicating “Dingles Steam Village,” take this exit.
At the end of the slip road turn left, don't take the first turning to the kennels,
just continue up this road for about 2 miles to the end at the top of the hill.
At the crossroads go straight across down a small lane.
Pass the “Thatched Cottage” on the right and “Rydons” on the Left.
Take the next turning on the right at the T- junction,
and Brambles Art Retreat is the second property on the right.
You cant miss it as its a fantastic shade of Pink.
Drive through the gate to a large courtyard at the rear of the house.


Interesting places to visit.
Brambles is situated in an area of outstanding beauty, located in North-West Devon near the Cornwall border,
it is close to three historic market towns - Launceston, Tavistock and Okehampton. Only two miles outside
the country village of Lifton with its archetypal village pubs and Parish Church.

Two Moors are just a short drive away- Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor ,with Dartmoor visible across the local fields.
Fantastic views, beautiful walks, pretty streams and rivers amidst a wealth of moorland, peppered with wild ponies and cattle.

The NT sites of Lydford Gorge, Finch Foundry, Cotehele, Lanhydrock and Buckland Abbey are all near by.
The incredible Eden Project is only 40 minutes drive away and the recently opened National Maritime Museum at Falmouth is approximately 2 hours away.
The Tate gallery, set in the pretty town of St Ives, is well worth a visit. Both coastlines are just a short drive and the sandy beaches of Bude are only 20 miles away.
The historic naval port of Plymouth is 20 miles away and Exeter is 40 miles due East.
