About this property

Deep in leafy Devon lanes and within the boundary of Dartmoor National Park is this former Victorian schoolhouse. Beautifully refurbished throughout the house retains many original period features. Enter into a a bright hall with space for coats and boots, off which you'll find a spacious dining area with room for everyone to eat together. The kitchen has a breakfast table and is well equipped with everything you'll need during your holiday. The snug sitting room has a wood-burning stove and is a cosy spot; cool in the summer, yet wonderfully warm in winter it's a perfect place to spend an evening in front of the fire. The former school room is now a huge games space complete with air hockey, games books and a futon style bed. On the first floor are two smart bedrooms a king size and a twin room both overlooking the pretty gardens. They share a family bathroom. Outside is a large, well tended garden with pretty shrubs, mature shady trees and parking for two cars.

For walkers, this is a perfect spot with direct access to Dartmoor and the Two Moors Way footpath which starts in Ivybridge, and the River Erme valley is also very scenic. City fans will love Plymouth, a vibrant and buzzing place with theatre, cinemas and shops aplenty. For seaside fun, beaches don't come much more lovely than those of the South Hams. With all the delights of Dartmoor and the South Hams beyond, School House is an ideal holiday for those seeking a holiday in Devon.
