National Trust Parking is a bargain £3 all day (2025) for non members and of course, free for members.

The former house and gardens of the chemist and inventor Otto Overbeck now belong to the National Trust. The eccentric Otto designed, among other things, the "rejuvenation apparatus". Electrodes were attached to the body and were supposed to work wonders. These and many other oddities can be admired in Overbeck's when the house is open. At the moment it is not because of renovation work! But the gardens are fantastically beautiful and worth a visit on their own. They exude southern charm - visitors almost forget that they are in England. There are only a few parking spaces, so it is better to walk here. Good food is available at the Gastrobus, where you can borrow a basket and enjoy the food in the beautiful garden. Very stylish! We have been here a few times over the years and have always been totally impressed

Running the coast path around Bolt Head is an absolutely brilliant section. The trail above Starehole Bay is particularly awesome.

Bolt Head is the headland south of Salcombe. It's owned and managed by the National Trust and makes a great section of the coast path.

The NT has put wheelchair/pushchair accessible paths down here so there is access for all.

There are certainly many highlights here, the special being the South Sands Ferry. There is no dock at the South Sand. A kind of tractor drives into the water there, where the ferry then docks. Very picturesque!

The way here is not difficult. From Salcombe take the ferry to Souths Sands and from there it is only a mile or two and you are on a lovely stretch of coastal footpath. You can continue walking to Bolt Head and then along the wall to Overbecks Garden. A wonderful little round.

Hard costal walk.
