Higher Coombe resides within the South Hams, a landscape where rolling fields meet ancient woodlands, the air often carrying the scent of damp earth and distant sea. It lies 4.4 km west-north-west of Buckfastleigh (from Buckfastleigh: bearing 296°T, OS grid SX 700 680), and is situated south-south-west of Holne village. The hamlet itself is a quiet constellation of stone dwellings, their roofs softened by moss and the passage of countless seasons, appearing almost as if they grew organically from the very contours of the land. Here, the sunlight filters through the leaves of mature oak and beech trees, casting intricate patterns on the narrow lanes that wind through Higher Coombe, each turn revealing another vista of verdant, undulating terrain. The silence is profound, broken only by the calls of unseen birds and the distant bleating of sheep, a soundscape that speaks of a timeless connection to the Devonshire countryside. The very stones of the cottages seem to absorb the prevailing stillness, offering a palpable sense of enduring peace.
