St Michaels Devon Map

About St Michaels

St Michaels breathes the salt-tinged air of Devon, a quiet settlement where the land slopes with a gentle insistence towards the sea. It lies 0.7 km south-south-west of Paignton (from Paignton: bearing 208°T, OS grid SX 884 601). The houses here, a pleasing mix of slate roofs and whitewashed walls, seem to absorb the soft, diffused light that often softens the South Devon coastline. A small, unassuming church, its stone weathered by countless seasons, stands as a silent sentinel, its spire a slender finger pointing towards a sky that can shift from pearly grey to an astonishing, luminous blue. The lanes around St Michaels wind with a purposeful, unhurried grace, flanked by hedgerows that in summer burst with the vibrant, almost audacious colours of honeysuckle and wild roses. The very air seems to hum with a subtle energy, a quiet promise of the ocean's proximity.
