Situation - Stoke Fleming is a quintessentially English village with a primary school, local store with Post Office, church, village hall, playing field with sports facilities, a restaurant and a village pub at its centre. Located within the South Hams, an Area of Natural Outstanding Beauty with splendid coastal scenery, the village stands in a prominent position overlooking Start Bay. Less than a mile away is the award-winning beach of Blackpool Sands, considered to be one of the finest of the many in the South Hams. The historic naval port of Dartmouth located a few miles away should provide all retail and recreational needs, with the town full of galleries, restaurants and shops.
