HISTORY
Bala Brook dates back to the bronze age, the adjoining lane having been thought to have been used by the Buckfast Abbey monks on their way to Plympton. Formerly known as Zeale Cottage, Bala Brook retreat would have been a dwelling connected to Zeale Farm which dates back to the 13th Century and recorded in documents dating back to 1279.

Purchased in 2009 by JB Pelly Trust and since has been used as a retreat and yoga centre allowing people to connect to their natural environment.

LOCATION
The estate is located just outside the village of South Brent, which offers everyday amenities including shops, pubs and a primary school. The property, surrounded by open moorland, with Shipley Bridge and the Avon Dam close by offers superb walking and riding country.

The A38 dual carriageway is reached at Marley Head, around a 10-minute drive from the property, placing Exeter approximately 28 miles to the north and Plymouth around 17 miles to the south. Totnes and Ivybridge stations provide regular rail services on the mainline, making the property readily accessible.
