By road:
Directions from the North, East and South East:
Approach Exeter westbound on the M5, and at Junction 31 (M5) take the A30 towards Okehampton.
As you approach Okehampton on the A30, disregard the first exit (so as to avoid Okehampton town centre) and continue for a further 2 miles on the A30. Take the exit signposted as A386 Bideford.
Leaving the A30, take the right hand lane on the slip lane in order to turn right at the 'T' junction at the end of the slip, and join the A386 to head towards Bideford. Turning right (to head north), and you will pass a Shell Petrol Station (fairly cheap) on your left, views of Dartmoor can be seen, and here you are approximately 22 miles from Scotland Farm (around half an hour to go).
Continuing along the A386, after approximately 2 miles you come to a round-a-bout, take the FIRST exit (turn left) sign posted A3079, and then take the A3072 to Holsworthy.
Before Holsworthy, turn right on a signposted bypass (a narrow lane), then follow the road ahead at a mini round-a-bout, continue 200 yards and rejoin the A3072. Turn right.
Continue 2 miles towards Bude, after passing the Golf Club on the left, continue a quarter of a mile and take the next left signposted 'Bridgerule.'
Continue a further 1 .7 miles and continue ahead past the signpost indicating a minor road on left to Dux,
After 150 yards, the drive is on the right, look for the wooden telegraph posts going right and 'NORTON FARM' and 'LITTLE PLATT' signs in the hedge. Please see map and pictures below:
