14 Overbecks


This was the seaside home of inventor and scientist Otto Overbeck. His house and gardens are perched high on the cliffs above Salcombe, with amazing views over the estuary and coast. The gardens contain a hidden paradise of tropical plants, including palm trees, banana plants, citrus and olive trees. The house is full of surprises too, with Otto’s quirky collections. A magical polyphon - disc playing music box - still plays and cabinets of butterflies and bugs sit happily


with collections of dolls, toys and model boats. Take lunch or tea in the old billiard room, a favourite of convalescing First World War soldiers, or eat alfresco on the warm, sheltered terrace.


Built in 1913, the house was bought by Otto in 1928 and left to the National Trust in 1937 following his death. See www.nationaltrust.org.uk/overbecks/ for more details.
