GARA BRIDGE 

Gara Bridge nestles in the beautiful River Avon Valley in the heart of the South Hams, being only 4 miles from the Georgian town of Modbury and 8 miles from Totnes and Salcombe. The A38 Devon Expressway is only 6 miles to the north providing access to Plymouth and Exeter with the nearest mainline railway connection at Totnes or Ivybridge. 

The River Avon is nearby and provides a peaceful area to walk, or for birdwatching and picnicking.

Modbury has an excellent range of independent shops and a supermarket as well as restaurants and inns and there are medical, veterinary and dental practices, whilst Totnes provides a wider range of services and facilities.

The local primary school for the area is Loddiswell with secondary and sixth form education at Kingsbridge Community College.  It is also in the catchment area for KEVICC at Totnes  and Torquay Grammar School.   Private education at Plymouth, Newton Abbot or Exeter.
