The lovely coast all around is a delight, with bodyboarding, paddleboarding and kayaking at Wonwell beach and brilliant surfing at Challaborough and Bigbury-on-Sea where you can sign up at the popular surf school. Walking is a pleasure here, either along the River Erme estuary or along the stunning South West Coast Path, or maybe to Burgh Island of Agatha Christie fame.
