The pretty waterside village of Noss Mayo on the Yealm Estuary in South Devon.

Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Noss Mayo

Self-catering holidays in the achingly picturesque South Devon estuary village of Noss Mayo are hard to beat if you want to slow down and savour the fresh sea air. Watch the comings and goings of boats by the quay, hunt for crabs at low tide, or watch the sunset from a quiet clifftop. Many beautiful walks in and around the village, including The Drive, provide breathtaking views across the woods, creeks and ocean. At low tide, you can walk to the village of Newton Ferrers, where Mothecombe Beach is an idyllic spot for a picnic. Nearby, Warren Beach is a secluded pebble bay where dolphins and seals are often spotted, and Cellar Beach is a half-hour walk from the village, reached by a steep, rocky path.
