About this property

This unique Devon retreat is off the usual beaten track, with fabulous far reaching views across green meadows where horses peacefully graze, towards Dartmoor. Situated adjacent to a small caravan site with only 5 pitches, and close to a golf course and fishing site, this cottage offers a quiet bolthole for walkers, cyclists and countryside lovers. The cottage is detached, spacious and flooded with light. There are also some superb reminders that this lodge was an art gallery in the past, with stunning local artwork available to purchase if you feel tempted. The open plan living space with cosy woodburning stove looks out to the moors, as does the superking double bedroom which is sure to give you a comfy nights sleep. After a day in the countryside, relax on the patio in your little private garden and fire up the barbecue for some local Devon produce. Close by is the small town of Okehampton with plenty of amenities, including a heritage railway and the Granite Way cycle track & which has the added benefit of being able to hire good quality bikes at Sourton. Walkers can enjoy the many fantastic routes nearby over Dartmoor National Park. This is a wonderful escape from the hurly burly.

Okehampton is a busy market town on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park and near the highest and most dramatic areas of the moor. To the north of Okehampton are some beautiful rolling Devon hills where small farming villages nestle amidst woods and fields with plenty of gently flowing rivers. Okehampton has a prominent medieval castle overlooking a wooded river valley, the Museum of Dartmoor Life (where Tourist Information can be found) and Okehampton train station.

    Well equipped holiday home with everything needed for a comfortable break and a perfect base for exploring West Devon and North Cornwall.

  • Michelle

    ..great views, big garden (plus extras such as sunloungers, fire pit etc) very spacious feel, clean and a very comfy bed! The garden and short walks from the door were perfect for my senior doggo but the Pegasus trail is just 5 mins away and another public footpath in the opposite direction if you want to walk for miles! Very well equipped too, will definitely plan a return trip - thanks!

    We were very comfortable with the lovely wood burner and luckily had our own logs as only an initial supply is provided. Our dogs enjoyed the very safe garden.
