Courshay Springs is a charming detached period property located just outside the sleepy village of Hawkchurch, just 4 miles from Axminster, which makes it an ideal holiday base for exploring both Devon,  Dorset and the famous Jurassic Coast. The central part of the property is some 200 years old and boasts characterful, spacious and light filled accommodation, quirky cottage doorways, with most rooms boasting dual aspects views over the gardens and surrounding countryside. Courshay Springs has been tastefully decorated and furnished with an eclectic mix of comfortable furniture making it ideal for both families and couples. The wildlife gardens and wildflower meadows are a real highlight of this property. There is parking available for 2 cars and one dog is welcome.

Location

Courshay Springs is located in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and there are plenty of delightful local walks on the doorstep. Within walking distance from the property you will find a village pub, shop and hotel, which has a brasserie open to the public. Just a 10-15 minute drive away are the popular Jurassic Coastal towns of Charmouth, Lyme Regis and West Bay.  This property is just 4 miles away from the bustling town of Axminster and also close by is Hugh Fernley-Whittingstall's River Cottage Canteen and Deli.  By night, the lack of any light pollution ensures that the Milky Way can be seen on a clear night sky.
