  Worswell Barton stands on the peninsula at the mouth of the River Yealm. We are a working National Trust Farm, with Cattle, Sheep and Arable, along with our Vegetables, including Asparagus and Rhubarb which we supply to the local area every week.  As well as at Saltram House National Trust property.

Our family have been farming here for over 65 years. Worswell Barton is hidden away in a magical corner of the South Hams, about a mile from the picture postcard villages of Noss Mayo and Newton Ferrers. The Farmhouse is a listed property, and is mentioned in the Domesday book and has a long history with the Revelstoke Estate. 

The Farmhouse has many different characteristics, One of which is its age, enclosed beams, sloping doorways, stone walls, and our guest rooms have all been named with reference to the coast that surrounds our home.

Sorry but we are a nonsmoking property and NO pets

I am happy to dry any wet clothing you may have, we also have a very friendly
taxi man, called Russell Hayes 01752 872052 who will do Kit transfers and
pick ups from the railway/bus stations in Plymouth.
 
Walkers please note that the water taxi from Wembury to Noss Mayo across
the Yealm Estuary, works between 10.00am and 4.00pm in high season, and
is limited during bad weather and low season
Tides Please make sure that you check these at the ERME ESTUARY,
as sometimes you can cross on a very low tide, but if we have had bad weather,
 the river can be flowing very fast, and can make crossing difficult.
 
Packed lunches are available with prior notice only.
