A cosy room on the peaceful Dartington Hall Estate
Lower Close Studios (aka Dartington Space)
My quiet and cosy room is just a few minutes walk from the Dartington Hall Estate main car park, or 1.5 miles from Totnes station via a pleasant route.
My room is difficult to find, so the first time we'll meet in reception - see the directions on this page. My mobile will be on at least 15 mins before our session, in case you need help - 07734 364362.
Address: Room 161, Lower Close Studios, Dartington Hall Estate TQ9 6EN. Please park here.
For subsequent sessions, if you're having trouble finding your way, either call me or follow signs to Heartwood Counselling College from reception.
Accessibility
Reaching my room normally requires tackling two quite steep flights of stairs. Sometimes this can be avoided by going through a studio, though it's unpredictable whether this is possible.
Maps of the Dartington Hall Estate and around
There's an entrance to the Estate on the edge of Totnes, and another next to Dartington church.
This detailed Estate map is likely to be useful, showing paths and parking options, plus locations of Lower Close Studios reception and my room.
Public transport
Bus 165, from Totnes to Dartington Hall (also to Dartington village, Staverton and Broadhempston), runs at least every 2 hours, through the day.
Car parking - use the main Estate car park
The main car park is opposite the popular Green Table Café. This is the nearest car park to my room, 5 minutes walk away.
Directions - from the main car park
Start at the main car park entrance. Head downhill on the left side for a few minutes until you get to the second right, with gates on it (see below).
Go to the end of this road, where you'll find reception (see above and below pictures). Please meet me here on your first visit. Don't try to find my room as we'll just end up missing each other!
Directions - walking or cycling from Totnes
In this case, you'll get to the turning shown above before the main car park. There are several places you can lock up a bike, just outside the building.
Relax and enjoy the Estate while you're here
The colourful and cared for gardens, or the beautiful River Dart on the Estate are great places to relax and settle before or after a session.
