Woodhaye is an impressive, elegant country house, surrounded by sweeping lawns and bordered by a beautiful Grade II listed Victorian wall. According to the listing, in the 1800s, these beautiful gardens were the former kitchen gardens to Membland Hall on the former Revelstoke Estate. The house is equally beautiful with many original features and well-proportioned, bright accommodation arranged over two floors.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance hall with sweeping staircase and a large landing window, and there are four reception rooms, including the sitting room with a Jetmaster fire, and double doors to the terrace, a dining room, study, and sunroom, again with double doors to the terrace. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with units and appliances, and there is a walk-in larder. Off the kitchen is a rear lobby, cloakroom, and utility room.

The first floor offers a beautiful main bedroom with en suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe, and four further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The larger of the four bedrooms all overlook the glorious gardens to the front, while the fifth and smaller bedroom overlooks the walled garden to the rear.

Outside
The sweeping drive opens into a large parking area and turning circle. The front gardens are impressive, being largely lawned and interspersed with occasional trees and colourful shrubs, and bordered by a beautiful Victorian wall which runs the perimeter. Beyond the wall is established, mature woodland with paths and a country track.

A second entrance to Woodhaye leads through a beautiful arch and gable with finials and a sundial. There is a full width terrace to the front of the house, well stocked flower beds and borders and a large greenhouse. The rear garden is again largely laid to lawn and bordered by a stone wall and mature hedging.

Outbuildings include a garage, workshop, a woodshed, a boat store, machinery shed and garden store. In all, the gardens extend to just shy of 7 acres.

The South Hams is a district in South Devon, and arguably one of the most sought-after coastal locations in the UK with an uncommonly temperate climate and miles of golden beaches and sheltered coves. Woodhaye is situated in the beautiful hamlet of Membland, which is less than half a mile from the water's edge at Newton Creek, off the River Yealm. The twin villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo, which straddle the creek, offer a wonderful vibrant community with a good range of amenities including a primary school, a post office, a village store, a pharmacy, three good pubs, a coffee shop/deli, and the Yealm Yacht Club. The city of Plymouth is about 11 miles and offers a superb selection of shops, pubs, restaurants, and cafés, and is home to delights such as The Barbican and The Hoe. Plymouth also offers a university, a major hospital, a theatre, and a ferry terminal with crossings to France and Spain. The stunning South-West Coast Path runs alongside the Yealm Estuary and the beautif
