Easton is a small hamlet, half a mile from the centre of Bigbury village, a charming village located 1.5 miles inland in the South Hams area of South Devon. The beautiful parish church of St Lawrence was extensively rebuilt in 1872 but parts are believed to date back to the 14th century. Local amenities include the recreational opportunities offered by the Avon estuary for walking, bird-watching and water sports, and the popular Oyster Shack known for its exquisite local produce. At St Ann's Chapel (one mile away) you will find Holywell Stores & Post Office, which is open 7 days a week - providing all your daily grocery needs, a public house and thriving village hall – a centre of numerous and varied community activities. A high quality, award-winning 18-hole golf course can be found at Bigbury-on-Sea overlooking the stunning coastline and Avon estuary. Approximately 3 miles away is Bigbury-on-Sea which is a very desirable coastal village famous for its magnificent sandy beaches and glorious views over Burgh Island with the renowned Art Deco hotel and the historic Pilchard Inn.
