Situation - South Allington is a little hamlet near rugged coastline, with magnificent cliffs and delightful coves, lending themselves to coast path walks, which are quite breath-taking. This area is quiet, unspoilt and boasts an abundance of wildlife and birds, including the rare cirl buntings which farmers and naturalists in the area are working hard to protect.
The area around South Allington is said to resemble the shape of a pig, hence The Pig's Nose Inn and Piglet Stores in the village of East Prawle. For walkers, this is idyllic rambling country, which can always begin or end at the popular Millbrook Inn, South Pool, situated just off the main Kingsbridge to Dartmouth coast road.
There are several excellent (and dog-friendly) beaches in the vicinity, including the very remote and beautiful beach at Lannacombe, just a 5-minute drive away, and Beesands, Hallsands, Mill Bay and East Portlemouth - from where you can hop across on a passenger ferry to Salcombe.
Kingsbridge is 6.5 miles away and offers an excellent range of shops and supermarkets, local services and facilities which include a Sports Centre (with a competition-size indoor swimming pool), primary and secondary schools, health centre and cottage hospital.
