3About Start
Start perches dramatically on the South Devon coast above Start Bay, where green fields tumble toward clifftops and endless Channel views. The A379 from Dartmouth provides the main approach, turning off at Stokenham for the final winding descent. EV charging points are scattered across nearby towns like Dartmouth and Kingsbridge. Start Point Lighthouse, built in 1836, rises 28 metres above the rocky headland as the area's defining landmark.
