Higher Batson, a quiet cluster of dwellings, breathes the soft air of the South Hams. It lies 0.9 km north-west of Salcombe (from Salcombe: bearing 309°T, OS grid SX 733 396). The lanes here, bordered by hedges that seem to hold the scent of damp earth and wild roses, wind gently towards the estuary, where the light often catches the water in shifting patterns of silver and jade. A sense of ancient husbandry clings to the fields, the land shaped by centuries of quiet toil, yielding its bounty under the vast South Devon sky. Higher Batson, though small, is a place where the very air feels seasoned, carrying whispers of the sea and the deep green heart of the countryside.
