Directions

From Fowlers offices go to the top of The Square and turn right and then right immediately down the other side of The Square. Follow this road for about half a mile and take the left turn after the Primary school which leads into the Teign Valley and passes the open air swimming pool. Continue along this country lane and almost at the end, on the left, you will come to a private lane flanked by two granite posts right next to the Sandy Park pub. Turn through the posts and continue along the private lane to Furlong, bearing right by the big Georgian House that names the settlement. This will bring you to a courtyard and the lane bears off to the right. Just after passing through the courtyard as if leaving, there is a sharp left turn and this is the gravelled parking area for Kings Barn and annexe.
