DIRECTIONAL NOTE

The property is accessed from a gravel driveway, itself accessed from a lay-by off the A3052, just to the West of Colyford and to the North of Seaton, at the bottom of Harepath Hill, on the left as one descends the hill. The gravelled access is to the rear of Harepath Farm and continues to a substantial gravelled area. The access then continues past the agricultural building though requires installing. A pedrestrian access, which is more appropriate for viewings, is from the layby, and is clearly indentified by the For Sale sign.
