The Sharpham Trust

At the heart of the Sharpham Trust ethos is our desire to build a more mindful, compassionate and environmentally-sustainable world. So we connect people with nature and foster mindfulness and well-being through our programme of retreats, courses, nature events - and the rewilding of our estate, just outside Totnes. www.sharphamtrust.org/whatson   The Estate is also home to the beautiful hideaway holiday let, The Bathing House. Sharpham House is only open to the public on certain days (see our events listing here). You can walk or ride to Sharpham from Totnes, taking the National Cycle Route 28 towards Ashprington. The Sharpham Trust, a registered charity administering the Estate, also operates Sharpham Meadow Natural Burial Ground. You can get married in Sharpham House too, as various rooms and spaces are licensed for weddings. The Sharpham Trust is LGBTQ+ friendly. The Trust also runs a riverside campsite at Point Field which is best accessed via canoe.

The Totnes Garden Trail

The Totnes Garden Trail leads from the market Square to three community areas, each with its own unique character and history and linked by the historic Leechwell Lane. The mosaics in Heath's Garden reflect its earlier role as Totnes' market garden; the largest space at Leechwell, its stream fed by the ancient well, is big enough to meet, picnic, play and enjoy the natural world, and The Lamb, which sits on the site of the former sheep market is full of wildlife friendly planting. The trail takes about 20 minutes to walk without stopping and ends at the Rotherfold at the very top of the high street, where you'll find local pubs and independent shops. Take a look at the trail
