A public slipway for boats is a mile away at the head of Frogmore Creek, which flows into Kingsbridge and Salcombe estuaries and to the sea.
Chillington offers a general store/post office, a pub (The Open Arms) and a hairdresser, whilst Frogmore has its own bakery.
Kingsbridge is 10-15 minutes away by car. It is the local shopping centre, and has a good selection of shops, supermarkets, cafés, pubs and restaurants.
