About The Fisherman's Rest in

Aveton Gifford

The Fisherman’s Rest is a free house in the village of Aveton Gifford, conveniently located between Kingsbridge and Modbury in the beautiful South Hams of Devon.

In previous centuries, The Fisherman’s Rest traded under different names, most laterally The Ebe Tide, at which before nightclubs existed in the local town of Kingsbridge, Devon folk from far and wide would whilst courting, attend the old weekly pub disco.

Today The Fisherman’s Rest is a destination pub and restaurant, with excellent function room facilities for weddings and events.

A true family business, for over ten years’ owners Mark and Athenia Capewell have afforded customers new and old a warm Devon welcome. Joining the owners in making guests feel at home are staff - Libby, Anne, Pat, Faye, Jade and Charlie.

You may note on visiting, a warm staff rapour second to none, with all but one of the team having been at The Fisherman’s Rest for over five years, most for considerably longer!

Mark, Athenia and all the team look forward to welcoming you too at The Fisherman’s Rest soon…
