Worswell Barton truly is a hidden gem: 600 acres of National Trust Land on the Peninsula of the River Yealm, nestled within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The South West Coastal Footpath runs alongside our farm, offering stunning views of the surrounding coastline.

Worswell Barton Farm was once part of the Revelstoke Estate, owned by the 1st Lord and Lady Revelstoke in 1885. Lord Revelstoke, a senior partner in Baring’s Bank and a director of the Bank of England, contributed to the estate’s rich history. The farm lies along the Revelstoke Estate’s 12-mile carriageway, which forms part of the South West Coastal Path. While much of the coastal path is undulating and challenging, the carriageway provides easier walking, with breathtaking views over the sea, rocky coves, Cellars beach and nearby Dartmoor National Park, Rame Head, Burgh Island, and Bigbury.

Steeped in history, Worswell Barton has witnessed key events, including its mention in the Domesday Book and its role as a decoy site during World War II to divert German bombers from Plymouth. The Warren Wall, once used to keep rabbits on the cliffs for estate workers, still stands as a reminder of the farm’s agricultural roots.

This peaceful location is a haven for nature lovers, with abundant flora, fauna, and a variety of birds, bees, and moths. Nearby Noss Mayo offers two excellent pubs, The Ship Inn and The Swan, both serving food and only a 20-minute walk from the farm. Noss Mayo is also served by a limited bus service (Route 94), with stops at the tennis courts three times daily.

For walkers of the SWCP please check tide times carefully when planning your walk. Please consider river crossing times and your forward journey time to your next accommodation stop.

We are approximately a 3.5 hour walk from the River Erme, which can be waded through only at one hour either side of low tide.

River Yealm crossing: Water Taxi’s available from April to September.

The Yealm Community Electric Transport (YCET) electric water taxi, now known as The Paul Darlow, operates daily between 7am – 10 am and 4 pm until dusk. Contact Number 07399067942

Services maybe restricted during bad weather or quieter times.
