Peace and quiet of creek-side location

Tucked away in a tranquil creekside setting, offering serene waterside views and the soothing soundtrack of nature all around

Walkers paradise

With its winding coastal paths, secret woodland trails, and ever-changing estuary views, Newton Ferrers is a walkers dream - where every step leads to a new vista, a hidden cove, or a welcoming country pub

There’s a certain kind of quiet that only comes when water moves softly beneath a rising tide and oak trees rustle just beyond the garden gate. At Riverdale, nestled in the timeless village of Newton Ferrers, we found that quiet – and so much more. From the moment we arrived, Riverdale felt like a well-kept secret. Perched gracefully above the creek, the home welcomed us with sunlit windows, gentle interiors, and a rhythm that encouraged slow mornings and barefoot wanders. The views here don’t shout – they whisper: the shimmer of the estuary, sails drifting past, and herons poised in the shallows. Each evening became a ritual – a meandering walk along the leafy lane into the village, where the pub greeted us with warm light, clinking glasses, and the kind of conversation that lingers long after last orders. Each return to Riverdale felt like a gentle exhale. There’s magic in places that let you slow down, and Riverdale holds that magic with quiet confidence. It’s not just a stay – it’s a pause, a breath, a reminder that beauty is often found in the unhurried. We left lighter, grateful, and already dreaming of our return.
