At Beeson Farm we love the Easter holidays! The lanes are dripping in primroses and wildflowers, lambs are in the fields and the days are getting much longer- perfect for long and lazy afternoons on the beach.
The local villages really embrace the start of Easter and the start of the holiday season, so here are our top picks for an egg-cellent Easter in South Devon!
On Easter Sunday morning join us on the farm to see what the Easter Bunny has been up to. We guarantee there will be plenty of chocolate Easter eggs hiding around the farm, cottages and courtyard for our youngest guests!
Head over to the annual South Pool Easter Fun Day on 31 March (Approx 10 mins from Beeson Farm). The fun takes place alongside the estuary in the pretty village of South Pool, home to the fabulous Millbrook Inn. Be sure to turn up with your Easter Bonnet ready for the children’s egg hunt and bonnet competition from 12:15pm and then marvel at the South Pool duck race from 2pm. You can choose your rubber duck and cheer it on as it floats to victory down the estuary! There will be a BBQ and live music at the pub throughout the afternoon. East Soar Outdoor Experience is situated on a National Trust farm in one of the most breath-taking parts of the South Devon headland, just above the picturesque town of Salcombe (approx 15 mins drive from Beeson Farm). Their yearly Easter family fun days are hugely popular with locals and guests alike and will run from Friday 30th March – Wednesday 3rd April – 11am daily, £3 per child.
East Prawle is Devon’s most southerly village and The Pigs Nose Magical Easter Extravaganza is back for 2018 on 1st April (approx 5 min drive from Beeson Farm). It’s going to be a day of family entertainment for all, with Lez the Fez and even the Easter bunny itself making a visit. Head to the Pigs Nose for a fun day out and a chance to win some Easter prizes. The afternoon kicks off at 2.30pm with the Easter Bonnet and boiled egg design competition before the egg rolling race and treasure hunt.
At Beeson Farm we have five family friendly cottages sleeping 4-6. Easter is an ideal time to book exclusive use of the site for a large family/friends getaway.
