Malborough is a quiet village in the South Hams, conveniently situated within easy reach of Kingsbridge, Salcombe and Hope Cove. There are two pubs just up the road; both quite different in character and both serve food. One, The Royal Oak has regular folk sessions, where local musicians meet to practice together, which is really quite special, and often other musical nights. There is also a Bistro near the house.
For a small village there is quite a lot going on, yet it still retains its sleepy feel. There is also a garage shop on the Salcombe road that has an amazing range of food, including freshly baked French bread. It also has a cash back facility, handy if you don't have cash to buy a pint! For children, there is a park with a large field and play equipment. There are plenty of nearby beaches and wonderful coastal walks, which, if you know this part of Devon, goes without saying.
