Bere Alston is a village on a tranquil peninsula away from major road noise benefiting from its own railway station linking to Plymouth in approximately 20 minutes. The village is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the Devon side of the Tamar Valley and is noted as World Heritage Site. There is a variety of shops including a hairdressers and a post office/stores/bakery. There are cafes and a takeaway plus a village pub. Bere Alston also has a doctors' surgery and pharmacy along with an historic primary school. There are many wonderful walks in the area which are a short distance from the door. Tavistock and Yelverton are approximately 15 minutes by a car. The cottage has a south facing garden with attractive planted borders, glimpse views over distant countryside and a detached outbuilding with insulation and mains power which could be used as a home office/studio. We believe the cottage could date back 200 years (not listed) and has been extended to the side and rear creating a balanced living space which provides areas for entertaining and relaxing plus a garden room with a small wood burning stove for winter months.

This programme is integrated with the effluent discharge compliance assessment programme, Samples are taken not only of a significant discharge but also of the receiving water immediately upstream of the discharge and at the edge of the mixing zone downstream of the discharge. The 1992 programme has several purposes, such as: - identifying any impact by the discharge on the receiving waters. - characterising upstream water quality. - providing a database against which change can be measured.
