The Colmer Estate sits in the middle of the South Hams, a region of rural and coastal Devon much of which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, stretching as far as the edges of Dartmoor National Park and featuring one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in the UK which spans between Torbay and Plymouth. With a strong rural and maritime heritage the South Hams is noted for its beautiful landscape, quality local food, culture and scenic beaches.
