...in the heart of the West Country.

How to find us.....From the north heading west from Exeter.
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 “Fairground Heritage Centre,” 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, only two miles outside
the village of Lifton with its archetypal pubs and Parish Church.
Two Moors are just a short drive away - Dartmoor and Bodmin,
Dartmoor is visible across the local fields. Surrounded by stunning views,
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 Falmouthis approximately 1.5 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 25 miles away.
The historic naval port of Plymouth is 23 miles away and Exeter is 40 miles due East.
