We have our own woods footpaths and streams for the nature lovers; both Bridle and Cycle ways are close by without the need to use public roads. If you walk quietly, you may see Deer grazing at the edge of our woodland, which also provides a wonderful habitat for the Pheasants and Woodcocks.
Every summer the Swallows return to Labdon Farm. They seek out their old nesting sites in and around the old stone barns and stables, when the young have hatched they will entertain you on summer evenings with skilful (and sometimes not so skilful!) flying. Count the many species of birds. Buzzards are frequently seen in pairs riding the thermals calling to their young
In spring, the banks and hedgerows are rich with Snowdrops, Primroses, Violets, and Bluebells. In early summer, Foxgloves, and Cow Parsley. Later you will find scented Honeysuckle, Dog Roses, Rosehips, and Blackberries.
Within walking distance, our beautiful 14th Century Eggesford Church watching over its River Taw equally famous for Salmon and Tarka the Otter, for the really energetic the Tarka Trail will allow you miles of meandering walks many along the banks of the River Taw.
