Just after the turning to East Allington and before you enter Kingsbridge itself, there is a mini roundabout. Bear right and drive to the next junction, passing across this to the next roundabout. Turn right towards Aveton Gifford and proceed through the village. Once on the ring-road you will see a slip road turning on your left signposted Ashford, which takes you towards Combe. Continue along this lane until you see the signpost on your right hand side directing you to a left hand turning with the name Combe on the sign. Take that left turn and proceed down this lane, ignoring a turning on your right to Knowle. Take the next turning bearing right, and at the bottom of the hill take another right turn into the private drive, which leads into the car parking of Combe Farm Barns.
