The windows of this tiny vintage shop are filled with embroidered silk blouses and strings of pearls. Inside is a labyrinth of small rooms crammed full with antique and retro clothing, from lacy wedding dresses strung along Elizabethan beams to rows of military and fur coats.

Wild swimming - there's the fresh water section of the River Dart outside your door. Swim before breakfast - amazing!
Sharpham Vineyard is a small vineyard and dairy set in the beautiful landscape of the South Hams along the picturesque river Dart. It is set within the Sharpham Estate where Sharpham House, dating back to 1770, resides in a Capability Brown Landscape. Different tours are available, from a self-guided walk with instructed cheese and wine tasting to a riverside walk followed by tutored wine tasting and a light lunch. However, it is necessary to book in advance for longer tours or larger parties. The Estate is also home of the Sharpham Trust which supports diverse projects balancing practical endeavors with spiritual enquiry. Sharpham is a truly inspiring and calming place to spend time.
