This intriguing and intimate house is crowded with a lifetime of treasures amassed by the well-travelled Miss Rosalie Chichester, including model ships, costumes, pewter and exotic shells.

Dingles Steam Village - Milford Lifton, Devon
Nestling in the peaceful West Devon Countryside, but just one mile from the main A30, is Dingles Steam Village, a unique example of steam heritage at work, which started from Richard's, the owner, interest in the history of R. Dingle & Sons, the premier supplier of steam and later modern road making equipment. Many of the exhibits were sold by his father in the 50's and 60's for £100 and bought back for many thousands and then rebuilt.

Dartmouth Castle
This well-preserved and beautifully sited castle juts out into the narrow entrance of the Dart Estuary. Begun in the late 14th century, a defence called 'the Fortalice' was intended to protect the homes of Dartmouth merchants from shipborne attack. By 1491 it had been reinforced by a gun tower, probably the very first fortification in England purpose-built to mount heavy cannon.
